To my dear Faira,
You’ve made your decision
I pushed all the guilt inside me
And let the sadness drown me for a little while

I will never forget the vast amount of orange in your closet
I will never forget the touch of your hair when I helped to give you a haircut
I will never forget the chats we had at the bar as we sipped our favourite cocktails
“FOCUS ON THE PATTERNS HE GAVE YOU, NOT THE POTENTIAL “
I remember saying that and you agreed to it wholeheartedly

I should have given you a tighter hug
I should have stayed longer with you
I should have been with you more often

You were consumed by the darkness you felt
I wish I could stop you and pull you from it
I wasn’t an amazing friend to you and I would love to apologise for that.

Know that you’re always in my heart, faira
