One Wish

If I have one wish for you, my love, it would be that you never let the world dim your light. Sometimes, it is cruel and wicked, punishing the innocent and sinner alike, showing no mercy, with the flames of hatred growing more intense with every act of revenge. It leaves a trail of devastation and broken hearts as collateral damage.

It can consume your soul and corrupt even the pure and kindhearted people. I can only imagine what you may be going through, having to face the outside without me by your side. To guide, cherish, and shelter you in my warm embrace. But don’t let it darken your heart.

Let my love and memory live on within your eyes. Let every smile and teardrop you shed remind you of our undying love. Through it all, remember that our goodbye is never where it ends. For I am a part of you, as you are always a part of me.


Editor: Shannon Hensley
