Us, Leaving Each Other - The Dragon Empress; Conclusion

I remember the time we slow danced together in the mall.

My one earbud in your ear, and the other in mine.

There was a sudden relaxed pace in my mind,

Yet the speed of a lightning bolt in my heart.

That’s when I knew I loved you.

I hope you meant the words you said to me.

If it came from pure illogical emotion and you weren’t truly thinking,

That’s okay too.

Either way, I hope that I’ll be remembered by you, the way I know I’ll remember you.

It doesn’t have to be overwhelmingly positive, but just a subtle touch.

I know I said it too often,

But I hope I aided and inflicted your life for the better,

and this wasn’t only just 3 months that will be forgotten in the future.

One day I’ll be able to feel again. I have to.

Numbness won’t cure me, but only the love I decide to surround myself with

If I go through a thousand tear droplets today,

I hope I’ll go through nine hundred and ninety-nine tomorrow

And maybe one day I’ll finally be at peace,

even though I’ll never feel you in my arms anymore

But I would do everything again,

even if the pain seems unbearable right now.

I cannot be more grateful for how you taught me,

teaching me on how to trust, how to smile, and how to love,

the way I never could for so long.

You took my hand while I was at my lowest, and lifted me to soar into the skies.

So thank you.

Thank you for the security that was brought from the words we shared,

The perspectives I could’ve never seen without holding your hand,

And the love I felt, even just by looking into your eyes.

I’ll always wish you the best.

Godspeed, mi amada.
