Today I remembered the room of mirrors and that he wore his glasses.
I remembered that nothing was ever that clear before.
I remembered that you we're never him and I was never her.
So I need you to know that today,
I let go of you.
It's taken me longer than it should have to realize I didn't do anything wrong,
and I was never the monster in your closet.
I was just me and you were just you.
My only weakness was trying to hold you close while keeping this secret an eternity closer.
So I need you to know today,
I let go of you and us and all the potential I imagined.
Because,
Today I remembered I gave my heart to a boy almost two years ago as a gift and he still
hasn't opened it just yet.
But it will never cease to be entirely his.
It took me one year to forget and another to remember that my hearts there and it's big.
I love you.
And I know you love me.
But you will always be you and I can't help but be me.
So I just need you to know that today,
I let go of you.
And nothing has ever been as clear as today.
