The Light & The Darkness

Ryan,

I can see who you are, you're one who sometimes cannot sleep at night because your soul doesn't know peace. You're the kind that looks for beautiful things in the darkness because that's where your soul has spent some time, in the darkness. You're the kind that love the wolves because you don't fear them. You are the type to play the same old love songs over and over, just so you can feel all of the emotions all over again. You'll wake up each day and slap a smile on your face for the sake of all those around you, just so no one knows the sadness you carry inside. But I see you, as one who struggles to wake up and fight each day. You're one who has more bad days than good under your belt, and you still get up and try with everything you have, even though you want to give up and give in. I can see you, wanting to live the ultimate fairy tale when life has only delivered you material for a nightmare. I hope you never lose that spark I can see burning within you, that light behind your eyes. I hope you never lose your hope, as a hopeless romantic, an empath and an emotional warrior. You are a beautiful man because you never give up, also beautiful because you've let yourself feel all the highs and all the lows and to accept that life has both, the light and the darkness. I see you, but I feel it's time for you to see yourself, through my eyes, and the way the rest of us see you. You've always been more than enough, and the depths of who you are do not make you broken or hard to love. They only make you more worthy of love, but you must first love yourself. I see you, and that the world hasn't always been so kind to you. I see you because in you, I see myself, and I wanted you to see and know that you are not alone.

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...
