My Last Love Letter

love letters were my thing, i'd write them neatly hoping that my words would somehow reach you. every single one as cheesy and corny as the other, always making me grin at myself.

i was a fool.

i didn't see what i was doing, what i was thinking. all i thought about was my happiness, my euphoria. with your smile in my head all day long, how could i not?

my intentions were pure, believe me. i'd always think at the end of a rainbow was our happy ending. that someway, somehow, we'd end up together.

i didn't see that with every letter i gave, it hurt you more and more. i didn't see the pain in your eyes. every thing was hidden from me, i couldn't see past the clouds. and i'm sorry.

this will be my last, i promise. i won't write, i won't smile, i won't see you. not anymore. for once in my life, i'll be doing something worth it, i'll be burning away the memories of the past.

i'm happy.
i hope you are too.
