Don't Forget Me, Okay?

Dear ,

You should know just how unplanned it all was.

I never meant to grow with you

to befriend you

to miss you

or to love you...

any of you.

It just sort of happened.

in that unforgiving sort of way that existing just happens to have...

I can't accept all of it

take it away

apologize for it

or forget any of it.

I've tried pills

alcohol

sleep

smoking

and I've even combined them all

just to try...

but this is who I am now

this is what I am now: inconsiderate. I know.

So this is my last selfish act

my letter to you

elaborating my feelings

explaining my thoughts

excusing myself from all of your lives.

that I unintentionally grew with

and befriended

and as a result of that I painfully miss

and love

all of you...

But this is my pathetic

desperate

self absorbed

GOODBYE.

Like everyone else, I've gone through my hardships and I know there are more to come. I've lost friends whom were close to me, I've suffered with grades in school, and I have my own family issues. I used to write with a pessimistic perspective, as you'll see in my earlier writings, but people change with time. I don't want to view what has happened and what will happen through a dark haze. I now write with a more hopeful attitude despite if I'm sad or angry. By reading these, you're getting to know the inner me and though I encourage constructive criticism, for that reason, please be honest and kind. Thank you and, by the way, it's nice to meet you! ;)
