Dearest 'beautiful past',

A letter to the past

Thank you, for the stolen moments, the late night calls,
Thank you, for the laughter that echoed in these walls.
Thank you, for sharing dreams whispered beneath the stars,
Thank you, for the silly fights that ended with healed scars.
Thank you, for the shy touches, the way you held my hand,
Thank you, for understanding, the way you made me stand.
Thank you, for the secrets, safe within your gaze,
Thank you, for the butterflies, that danced in a happy daze.
Thank you, for the chai we shared, on rainy afternoons,
Thank you, for the whispered jokes, beneath the full moon.
Thank you, for the stolen glances, across a crowded room,
Thank you, for making me feel, safe from all the gloom.
Thank you, for the fights we fought, for the tears we cried,
Thank you, for showing me a love, I can't hold inside.
Thank you, for the forever, we painted in the sky,
But mostly, thank you, for the goodbye, that makes my whole world cry.

Forgive me, for the things I said, in the heat of the fight,
Forgive me, for the promises, that turned to dust in the night.
Forgive me, if I wasn't enough, to be the one you hold,
Forgive me, for letting go, of a love worth more than gold.

I'll keep you, tucked in a corner, of this tattered heart,
A melody of what we were, a love that fell apart.
I'll whisper, "Thank you," to the echo of your name,
And pray, that someday, this heartache won't feel the same.

But for now, I'm left with silence, where your laughter used to be,
A million "thank yous" for a love, that wasn't meant for me.

From,
'A boy who isn't yours anymore.'
