Dear doctor,
Do not be alarmed or upset when you read this letter, but feel content. Content that what we have will never be gone, tarnished or forgotten. By the time you read this, I will be gone. But please do not come after me for we both know we cannot be. Please do not despair for I don't leave you out of hatred, but out of love. I love you doctor, more than you will ever know.
We have shared the best times together, and the worst and I will never regret a moment I have spent in your company. You taught me so many things. You taught me to always see more than was visible, never to be afraid of fear, and you taught me to love. These lessons I will never forget.
But we both knew this time would come, and at last it has. I am grateful for the adventures time has given me with you and I will carry them forever in my heart but I can no longer be with you. For one day I must leave you be it in death or otherwise. So I choose otherwise. Not because I fear death but because I no you will blame yourself. I do not want you to regret a single moment we were together. I do not want you to look back on our time and think you were responsible for my death. And that is why I leave you. Because Doctor, if you can't spend your whole life with me, neither can I you. I only want to protect you and I know that one-day you will learn to be happy again knowing that while your memories are strong I can never fade away.
Its so cruel that we spent so little time together, but I will never really be gone, as long as you hold me close to your heart, as I will you. Do not fear your dreams doctor because I will be with you in every one of them. Holding your hand, running like nothing else matters, kissing you goodnight, all this was real and can never be disputed. One day I no that death will take us both, and no matter how long it takes I will wait for you in the after life where we can be together forever without the burden of mortality. Before I leave you, I ask just this:
Remember me doctor, remember me always. Remember me and I will remember you. Don't let go of the times we spent together and run every day, run like nothing else matters. I love you Doctor and as long as we remember we will never be apart. You will always be my Doctor.
Deepest love and always yours
Your Rose xxx
