[hometext] => You will never cross the ocean; unless you dared to leave the shore.
[bodytext] => Thank you for the time we spent together, for the memories etched in my heart Thank you for all the laughs through jokes we shared, the tears through troubled times, this feeling that's welled inside Thank you for the care and affection, the thoughtful words when I am down, and thank you for the passion Thank you for the tender kisses, the gentle embrace, the loving touches, we once exchanged. Thank you for the love that's once in both our hearts, the dreams we once had cherished, the promises we each have made. Thank you for proving that love exists - in many ways or so Love can be mutual - yes, that's the easiest kind of love - that's when one love is shared, shielded and embraced; Love can be one-way - that's like driving on a circling path. You know you have to follow the path but the path leads to nowhere. Yet knowing that, to still remain on the path; to trust that it's the right way to go Fervently hoping, truly believing that someday the path will lead to somewhere This, is the boldest kind of love- unconditional. That is to look at someone, to have viewed all their faults and flaws, yet still consider them perfect. It is for the heart to be able to ache, to yearn, even when the loved does not love back. It is for the mind to wait through timeless age, knowing that the loved has been long gone. Lastly, it is to be able to set aside one's self for the sake of the loved It is not about hopelessness, even dying It is to survive, to be anxious for tomorrow to see their smile, to hear their laughter To say 'just one more time' each time It is to be able to let go - for letting go is never a simple sign of weakness, it is instead of bravery brave enough, to step aside, and brave enough to be alone To venture into what's unknown to grasp that your leaving is best, for the one that's being loved, that love is sacrifice And that is how I want to love That is how I want to love, you Thank you, for telling me what it had meant, to love somebody with all my heart.
