Looking at you now, I know that you've changed on the outside. I used to look from afar, and think about that used to be us. Just thinking about it brings back painful memories. But looking now, we've grown close again. Sadly enough though Roxas, I don't think that we can be as close as we use to be. I miss those days where we didn't even have to say anything and we could make each other laugh. Our inside jokes, you brought one up recently and I was shocked that you even remembered. Laughing with you. Oh how I miss those days when we would just sit around and think.
But then when Xion came along everything fell apart. She changed you like I've stated in my many letter before. Now as time goes by you two aren't like you used to be, but we're reaching out to each other again. And I'm glad that we can laugh and talk like we used to. It feels good to know that our friendship is healing again. To see you smile once more was like a blessing from heaven. I needed to see those blue eyes again.
Even if we can't be together again, I'm glad I got to talk to you one last time. So as long as I can remember you as you were, and remember you as you are now, I'll be happy. One day I'll move on. But until that day come I needed to see your face again. So thank you Roxas. Thank you for making me who I am today, and who I will be. I couldn't have done anything I've done today without having met you. You inspired me to do a lot, and be better than I was before.
So again I have to thank you, because without you I wouldn't smile like I do today. Without you I wouldn't laugh like I do today. I wouldn't even be the same person. You showed me what true happiness looks and feels like. And for that I'm grateful. But sadly, soon I will have to say goodbye and I don't know if I'll ever see you again, but I know what you have done for me and I hope I have done at least something for you.
But today, I'm glad that I now know that our friendship is healing Roxas. I'm glad. So until that day comes I'll be here knowing that what we had will never happen again, but at least we aren't completely ignorant of each other.
~Your once dear friend
