Close to my heart Quote by Dee
“HOW do I start putting everything in place? When everything is already where they are supposed to be. How do I say I'm broken? When in the very beginning, I was the reason for your misery. How can I dare you to stay? When I was the one who walked away and let you go. Now, How dare me say I'm broken when you have turned to ashes enduring all the pain. I am in no place to feel any sadness, perhaps. but I certainly know that what I feel is not guilt. How can I ask myself now to move on, when I was the one who left you behind. I never have the right to say I'm hurt..because it will euthanize the essence of what you feel.You were far from wrong when you said that I can't have it all. Yes, I accept now that I will lose you totally. Tell me, I will not bother you. If that's the only way I can be fair, once and for all, with you. farewell my dear..so close to my heart.not having you beside me is so much to bear..Oh, What have I done!”
