You came to me during a trying time. My head was confused and my heart did pine. My love was sincere but, could not overcome the pain and the sorrow which death had begun. Though you were there when I needed and treated me kind, the acceptance I needed was far from my mind. The hurt that I gave you brought me much pain. But, I couldn't evade it, for it brought me great gain. Gain of the knowledge and wisdom to accept God's will. And, finally reach the top of that very high hill. I've attained the peace that I prayed to find. My life is now balanced, and, to new love, I'm no longer blind. Maybe someday our paths will again cross. And, maybe we could try again without the risk of a loss. If this never happens I want you to know, I truly do love you though I didn't let it show.
Reason for writing:
Six months after someone I loved dearly died, a wonderful person came into my life. It was way too soon for me and I was filled with grief, bitterness and pain. This wonderful person was there for me and tried his best. Because of the emotional state I was in, i pushed him away and hurt him terribly. When I finally came to terms with the death, I was able to clearly see what I had lost and how much I loved him.
