I don't know if that was closure--the truest closing of a door. But before you go, when that happens, I hope you know, I hope I tell you, that I (still) love you. That I already accepted this, that you are always well.
It has been eight, ten years.
Listen, I am here with my palms open. I am waiting for the sound.
The only regrets I have, if you can even call them that, is that I did not watch you when the song played; I did not tell you that you are the arctic fox.
I cannot think of it as losing, if it is losing, or being too late, if I am too late. Now was my right time. Now is the time I understand what I want in life. Now is the time I'm willing to wait for it, but live my life in the interim.
I will have Tintern Abbey or nothing. I think, hope, I'm ok with that.

It's funny how life just switches on you, how the anger dissolves & the only thing left is self-preservation. I'm not angry. I probably should still be, but it just doesn't have the staying power that love has in myself.
