Saying Farewell

3:53 pm


You've changed, my friend. 

That's what I'd like to believe, but, then again, there comes a rush of cliché that you were probably never like the person I've thought I knew. The truth is, though, that as every single cell changes in your body within a month, you are physically bound to change every second. Changing so much and so frequently that you simply cannot hold a personality together for long, especially when the outside keeps switching, too.

You see, I was mad, I was full of anger, wrath of a child, rage of the forgotten, but I've just realized, you had to alter to suit your life more properly. That is weak, and yes, I think you are weak, too, but I have no doubt that I often sink to such depths myself as well. It is weak to impose the change in order to fit the norm, to make yourself attractive for all the self-absorbed little bondage-freaks around you. But I know why you do that. You felt alone, you wanted comfort and instead of releasing the pressure of the sickening shackles, you left yourself be bound, limited, what's more: you added to it yourself, so you could be like Them, the Others. There, now. Your children feed on you, because you've built a part of them inside you. You have lost yourself to the great world.

And how do I know that? You've left me, first, to begin your shift towards the adored nothingness. I didn't tell you what to do, I failed to be the soothing balm that would justify your mental self-annihilation. I loved you and you chose to move – so I did what I would have expected from anybody else in the same situation, I let you go and watched, watched closely, if you had any shard of lack. You didn't. You just needed me to let you go to change entirely, into somebody who has no use of me anymore.

I understand now. I've bent my shackles and plan to destroy them entirely. Though I know you will fail in trying to find peace in others to make it yours and I will miss you, I know, we both need to walk our paths alone. I can't meddle in your decisions, I cannot step with your feet. I'll step with mine, alone, for I fear myself not anymore. May you fly and falter and fail. Our paths crossed and they seem to have parted.
