The letter below is for a friend, that I consider special.

Dear Joseph,

I miss you so much. I miss the times we talked for so long. The times we talked about our older siblings. I miss the times that we share our stories and problems. Though there are a lot of things I missed, I must learn to let go and forget. I must accept what is for me and what’s not for me. I must understand that there are things in this world that are not meant to be. I should just face the music that you and I are not made for each other. That it is only I, who lives in the world which I made for the two of us. It is only I who hopes that someday there will be an “us”. We will still stay as friends even though I will slowly go away. After all I will not fall for you if you were not my friend. It is just that there are things I must avoid right now in order to forget and learn to understand. Someday I shall move on, though I will still love you when that day finally arrives at least then I could face you and still say “I’ am really just your friend” without getting hurt. I hope someday we can be the best of friends after all we have a lot of things in common. Similarities that brought me to falling for you. From now on I must get used to watch UAAP without you to discuss it with. I must learn to study my lessons with out you in my mind to act as my inspiration. I must learn not to think of you when I’ am eating a slice of cheesecake. I will slowly fade away from your life without saying goodbye, for this is not an end for our wonderful friendship. It is simply a stop over so that I can make the wrong things that happened to once more the right one.
