Do You Really Love Each Other?

You know the lights will dim eventually and I knew that would happen to us too. From the very beginning we know things will be temporary but that doesn't mean it makes it less meaningful. It took me a long time to realise that we were probably not meant to be together. Letting go is an extremely difficult thing and at that time people go through so many different emotions, anger, pain, hatred, sadness and it's totally normal to feel that way. But even through these different emotions that wrecked my mind I never regretted anything that happened between us.
Just because I loved you and things fell apart eventually, I will never be ashamed to say I loved you. I loved the loved person you were not the cold person that you are now. If you ask me what I love about you today, I love the memory of the person you used to be, I love that you allowed me to feel the love my heart can contain. I love that you showed me I can give, I love the happiness that you showed me I could feel. Thank you for everything that you did and I don't regret it one bit.
I'll remember you like a Coldplay song, serene and classic. Simple yet enlightening. Real and meaningful. Faded but beautiful. I will forever be grateful for the times you've shown me honesty, genuine care and courage because you taught me how to become them. I choose not to be in a dark place. Even when the waves of missing you start occurring once in a while, I try to see every angle of it as something beautiful that happened, instead of being a wreck about it. The pain is there, but it's the good kind.
You reminded me to take chances. With myself, with other people. You reminded me that not everything has to go according to plan. You reminded me that it's okay to accept what comes and love it every second it's here. You showed me that I had the ability to love some one with their whole being, with their flaws, with their past, with all of that baggage that they came with.
I don't know what your version is, and I'm not sure what you remember about me, but when I remember you, I remember only the good. Know that when I remember you, it will be paired with a smile on my face. And I intend to keep it that way. Sure, you weren't my forever. But you were my then. You were my 'at one time.' And goodness, how beautiful it was.
