All I Need In This Life of Sin...

Dear bestgirl,
I don’t remember much about what happened, what we said or even did.

I only remember how you made me feel.

Enid, you’re someone I wouldn’t ever want to lose.

I know you’re not the type to forgive, and I’m not asking for forgiveness.

I’m asking you to be practical. I’ve never neglected you.

Whenever you needed me, I was there.

Just because I love you doesn’t mean I’m in love with you.

You’re my best friend.

Even though you’ve hurt me.

Even though you ignore me.

Even though you treated our growing up as if I wasn’t of any significance to you.

Honestly, I deserve better. I should never beg someone to be in my life.

I don’t know what I’m doing, but I believe in keeping it organic.

You deserve to live the life you want with the people you choose.

Just know that I’m always praying for you, thinking about you, and thankful for everything you’ve been in my life.

I swear I manifested becoming close to you from middle school to high school, and then it eventually happened.

I hope you get this. If not, I guess we’ll never know.

Ily bestgirl.
I’ve made my peace with you here, now, and forever.

Smile and live long. Ily bestgirl.
