Chapter 13 - One day

You are slowly fading away

from my heart

its hard , trying to forget you

when at one point you were

the only thing i knew

so why now is it so hard

for me to even look at you

to even sit in the same room

as you

once we would laugh together ,

smile at each other after long

days , talk sweet nothings to each

other

but now you remain silent

your smile doesn't reach your eyes

your words are strange to my ears

its not your fault

neither is it mine

your role in my story has

changed

so has mine in yours

im fading from your heart

as well

but never from your soul

its weird

i loved you

with my very being

but now its different

i can see your flaws

as well as you can see mine

you have since the very beginning

but always loved me more

for it

you hid yours from me

maybe that why

i feel betrayed

i just wanted to be the

one for you

a person you can talk to

a person that can be the light

to your darkness

but i was wrong

you never needed

the light

neither did i need

the darkness

now we both became

strangers

again , slowly fading

from the others mind

and heart

now we decide

who will hold our hearts

next

and will become apart of our

souls

but we will always have the fading

memories of each other

and old pictures to remind

us of what we once were

time changes everything

but in this case it was my heart

to blame

it could not love you

and could not change the

fact that we both belong

to the ones that will

one day complete us

so now we part

and say our goodbyes

and maybe one day

our parts will cross again

but only this time

we will have different

people that hold

our hearts together

and have made our souls

their home

i cannot say i love you

but i wish you

a better life

and a person that will

one day

give you the love

i never could
