"You always were my little dreamer, my beautiful cloud dancer, pirouetting from heart to heart rarely if ever revisiting the ones you leave behind," you smiled as you pulled me just a little closer and put your hand over my heart.
"You found the key to my heart early on and I wanted nothing more than to welcome you to my life. Only you were too innocent, too broken to be asked that then.
There was a darkened stranger in your soul killing you a little more with each day. And you gave me the key to your heart in turn. ***, I couldn't stick around, tempting you with honest promises too far out of reach for such a sweet girl.
So I ran to my hiding place until you were able to smile again. I had no idea that it would hurt you so much, I only ever wanted the best for you. Oh, ***, thank you for forgiving my for being so unable to see that you were only ever truly happy right here next to me."
