Maybe this is the last message I'll ever send you. Hindi dahil wala na akong pakialam. But because I finally realized na may mga bagay talagang kailangan nating bitawan kahit gusto pa nating hawakan. Ang dami kong gustong sabihin sa'yo, pero ito na siguro ang pinakaimportante... Thank you. Thank you for being part of my life. Salamat sa mga araw na ikaw ang naging comfort ko. Sa mga gabing kahit simpleng "kumusta ka?" lang ang message mo, somehow gumagaan na ang araw ko. Hindi man naging perfect ang relationship natin, hindi ko kayang sabihin na wala itong halaga sa'kin. Because once upon a time, you were someone I couldn't imagine losing. And now... I'm learning how to live without you. Isang araw, napansin ko na hindi na tayo katulad ng dati. The conversations became shorter. The effort became different. And our promises slowly became memories. Ang sakit tanggapin na minsan, hindi naman talaga kulang ang pagmamahal. Sometimes, two people can love each other and still end up choosing different paths. Kaya this time, I won't ask you to stay. Hindi na ako magtatanong kung may chance pa ba. Hindi na rin ako maghihintay sa message na baka hindi na dumating. Because I know I deserve a love that doesn't make me question where I stand. Kung may mga bagay man akong pinagsisisihan, sana alam mong natuto ako. I'm sorry for the times I wasn't enough and for the words I said when I was hurt. At sorry sa mga pagkakataong pinili kong manahimik kaysa sabihin ang totoong nararamdaman ko. Pero sana mapatawad mo rin ako. And I hope you know that I forgive you too. Hindi ko na gustong dalhin ang galit habang nagpapatuloy ako. I don't want to remember you because of the pain. Gusto kong maalala ka dahil minsan, naging masaya ako dahil nakilala kita. You were once my favorite person. My safe place. My reason to smile. And even if you're no longer part of my everyday life... I'll always be grateful that you were once there. Kung magkita man tayo someday, sana hindi na awkward. Sana kaya na nating ngumiti without remembering all the things that hurt us. No bitterness. No anger. No asking for another chance. Just two people who once loved each other and finally learned how to let go. I sincerely hope you find the kind of happiness you're looking for. Sana makatagpo ka ng taong magiging safe place mo, taong hindi mo kailangang pagdudahan, at taong pipiliin ka kahit mahirap ang mga araw. And when that happens... I hope you take care of that person. As for me, I know healing won't happen overnight. May mga gabi pa ring mamimiss kita. May mga songs at lugar na magbabalik ng memories natin. And maybe that's okay. I don't have to forget you just to move forward. I can remember you... without wanting you back. Unti-unti kong tatanggapin na tapos na talaga. Unti-unti kong matututunang mahalin ulit ang sarili ko. And someday, kapag narinig ko ulit ang pangalan mo, hindi na siguro magiging mabigat sa dibdib. I'll simply smile and think... "That was once a beautiful part of my life." Kaya kung ito na talaga ang last message ko... I just want you to know that I loved you sincerely. Walang regrets sa pagmamahal na ibinigay ko. Because even though we didn't get the ending we wanted... you still gave me memories I'll never forget. But now, it's time. No more waiting. No more hoping. No more wondering what could have been. This time, I'm choosing to move forward. Hindi dahil wala ka nang halaga sa'kin. But because I finally understand that loving someone also means knowing when it's time to let them go. So goodbye. Take care of yourself. I hope life becomes kinder to you. And I hope, someday, life becomes kinder to me too. Maybe we weren't meant to be forever... but I'm still thankful that, for a while, we were something real. #lastmessage #movingon #heartbreak #hugot #lettertrend - @hakimon.9d
