How I would love to say that it was "love at first sight", but my like for you grew in time, little by little, like a blooming rose bud, but unsuccessful at becoming the most beautiful flower the world has ever seen.
I was never an expert at expressing myself, but there is this one thing that has been in my mind for quite a while now.
Perhaps the days we have spent together, side by side, are slowly fading away from you. I may not mean anything to you at all, but, my dear friend, you have been all that I think about since the very first smile you carelessly, yet charmingly flashed at me. From then on, our minor friendship began to grow into something that slowly took over my simple world.
People often talk about how time flies, and I am glad to be a living proof. Proving how time can truly alter one's personality, attitude and their perspective of the world. After loving someone so deeply, it is hard to see what else or who else can be more important in life. When you amiably announced to me that you were to leave, I felt like Time was unfair to me - I have yet to cherish and love this boy, then why must You take him away from me?
I know we have a shallow understanding of each other, therefore I used to strongly believe that we can over come the strangers within ourselves. With the effort that you propose, and the distance that is now forced between us, it almost seemed impossible to me. But I never stopped trying to take down the wall that separated us, at the end, it was your ignorance that, in time, broke my delicate heart that was on your never-ending rollercoaster.
All the bitter complaints would not do you justice, I am obliged to thank you for the excessive amount of joy and love you have brought to my dull soul. You have lit up my life for (what I would consider as) a fairly long period of time --- showing me fascinating new aspects to life, and giving me the opportunity to experience love, passion, and …adolescence. I am thankful to have gone through these key stages of my teen years with you.
Until now, I still have not found anyone as worthy as you to spend my precious time with, not one person provides the feeling of comfort, allowing me to become intimate with them. You were special to me and to anyone else. It is quite plain to see that I had fallen deeply for you, sometimes, I would even doubt my level of sanity for you. I have encountered excitement then, surely, disappointment and have experienced desperate desires to be close to you. Most importantly, it was you who proved to me that I am capable of loving boldly and devoting my full heart to someone, and that it is possible for me to be accompanied for the goods, the bads, the ups and the downs.
You are the only friend I openly shared a vast range of precious emotions with: tears, smiles, laughter, anger, pain, and uncertainty. Indeed, I will remember the conversations we had had to hide our fear for the powerful summer thunders. No matter how casual our conversations were, it was your deep, boyish voice and your presence that calmed me, warmed me and ultimately became my one and only solace. Your heartfelt advise, short comforting messages and headstrong arguments against my self-doubting beliefs have been carved on me, and will stay with me for life.
