How do you accept the moment when someone who was close to you simply leaves? When they close the door and leave behind an emptiness, a silence? Maybe it doesn't make sense to look for answers right away. Maybe the departure that seems like an end is actually a beginning that you don't yet understand. Sometimes it's precisely losses that direct us to where we should be going.
When you left, it seemed like the world stood still for a moment. Words they hung in the air, unspoken, heavy, imbued with that which could not be explained.
Your departure was not a moment, but a nick in time that left a space – too big at first, too quiet, too empty. It felt as if everything I knew had fallen apart. But in that very disintegration, something new began to emerge, something waiting to be discovered.
Your departure put me in front of a mirror that I had ignored for too long. I didn't see you in him, but myself – that version of me that was hiding behind the dreams I had about you.
I learned that your assessment was not a punishment, but an invitation. An invitation to delve deeper into myself, to ask myself, Who am I without you?
At first the pain seemed like the end
Like something you can't escape, like a shadow that follows you wherever you go. But through that shadow, light began to seep through.
I realized that your departure was not only yours, but also my turning point. The gap between what I thought I needed and what I actually deserved.
When you closed a door behind you, you opened a new one – for me – even though I didn’t see it at first. Your departure was like the wind that blows away old leaves and makes room for new ones. At first, I struggled with questions. Why did you leave? What did I do wrong? But over time, I realized that the real answer lies not in you, but in me.
Everything happens for a reason – even your leaving.
Not to break me, but to transform me. Your absence taught me how to be alone with myself. To be there – for me – for myself. How to value my thoughts, my feelings, my dreams. It taught me that the love I sought in you already exists within me.
Your departure wasn't the end of the story, but the beginning of a new chapter. Chapters where I learned to love unconditionally, live without fear, and believe that what comes after loss is not emptiness, but freedom.
And now, when I look back, I no longer see you as a pain, but as a turning point. A new life without you. It's beautiful. I'm grateful that because of you I realized my worth, my strength, and my dreams. Your departure reminded me that I can lose everything, but As long as I have myself, I have everything..
