Always Need You

Rita,

It's almost midnight. I couldn't sleep. I can't stop thinking about you, not that I want to. Part of me does. Forgetting about you is impossible. I'm sending a tape with this letter that has a song that comes the closest to expressing how I feel. I miss you, I miss us. I've changed so much, and I hate it. Sometimes I remember what's happened, what I've done, but more than anything, or anyone, it comes back to you. Why? I wish I knew. It's all crazy how things work out. I keep trying to make sense of everything, why I ever fell in love with you, why we fell in love, why? I looked forward to so much, to so many things, to being with someone who would always be there, someone I could love no matter what else happened. But everything happens for a reason. Rita, I don't want to move on without you, it all seems so pointless and scary. For so long I centered my life around my feelings for you, and now that doesn't mean much at all. Memories, hold on to them, but forget them, hold to them, but move on, hold on to them, but become something without what means most to me - that's what I've been trying to do. I need you. Do you get what I'm saying? I need you, I need us. But it isn't going to happen I know, but please understand, I will always need you.

For A Moment

To Rita, I know you're out there somewhere, existing without me, and it hurts. Never did I imagine it would come to this, having to exist without you. You were my best friend, so you said. But where are you now? I know you still think of me. I hope you think of me, like I still think of you. Love never ceases to exist, no matter how bad the hurt may be. I know I betrayed your trust. I lied to you. I guess once is all it takes to break the trust. I don't expect you to trust me again, but please believe me when I say, I love you and I always will. So goodbye for now, I hope someday I'll see you, even for a moment, you have no idea how happy that would make me. If you could only see me now, maybe, just maybe, you could listen and believe me when I say, I love you. I love you.  Ryan

Soul Is Undone

Dear Ryan, I've got so many things to say to you, I don't know where to start. I guess it's best to start from my heart. I forgive you, despite everything we've been through. I know we put each other through heaven and hell together. We were extreme lovers, the highest of high's and the lowest of low's. It seems our flames burned so hot that it was only a matter of time before we completely burned each other out. No regrets, the fire was worth the burning. After all, I think that's all I'll say. Except of course, that I'll love you forever, until my soul is undone in the life after this.  Jonah

Take A Breath

 Ryan,  The hardest thing you’ll ever have to do is believe in yourself again after everything’s fallen apart.⁠ When life shakes you like that, it’s easy to lose your faith. In yourself. In people. In the path you are on.⁠ It gets quiet, heavy and lonely. It can feel like no one really sees or understands what you’re going through. I need you to hear me on this.⁠ There’s still something in you that hasn’t quit. That light, it’s never gone out, it’s never left you. It’s always been there when you need it the most.⁠ ⁠You can call it hope, or strength, or stubbornness. I’ve called it resilience, and it’s gotten me through hell.⁠ You don’t have to figure everything out. Just get quiet enough to remember who you are. That will take you where you need to go. Who you are has helped you get through every single thing that’s ever come your way.⁠ You’ve made it this far, that counts, that matters.⁠ So take a breath. Then just find one reason to keep going and hold onto that. That’s will...
