Have you ever loved someone who you knew was going to leave you soon? A love that is doomed to end.

I know you will leave.

The thought pierces me like a knife slowly sliding through my heart, but I can't avoid the truth - I know you'll leave. Loving someone you know you can't keep is one of the hardest lessons in life.

It is a pain that sinks deep into the soul, but at the same time it is also an opportunity to I learn to love unconditionally, without expectations, without attachment to the result. It is the purest form of love a person can experience.

Every moment I spend with you feels like I'm dancing on the edge of an abyss.

I feel like your every smile, every touch and every look you make is a precious piece of time I'm given to share with you. I know you're going to leave, but that doesn't diminish the value of these moments. In fact, it makes them even more special because they are limited, fragile, fleeting.

When I look at you, I see your eyes that hide a thousand stories.

Your laugh echoes in my heart like a melody that I will never forget. And yet, in every moment that we are together, I realize that our love is like a song that slowly fades away. But instead of it filling me with fear or despair, I'm learning to appreciate every tone, every beat, every note.

Love for you taught me how to surrender to the flow of life without clinging to the past or the future.

I learned that love is now.

It is in this moment when I hold your hand and feel your warmth. It's in looking at you and seeing your soul, so beautiful and complex. It's in listening to your voice and knowing that this moment will soon become just a memory.

When I love you, I also learn how to love myself

I am learning how to take pain and transform it into strength. I accept the fact that I can't hold you, and that sets me free. It frees me from the fear of loss, of pain, of loneliness. I am learning that love is not about possessing, but about giving. I give you my heart, my soul, my time, without expectations, without conditions.

I know the day will come when you will no longer be by my side

When you are gone, there will be a void that will be difficult to fill. But at the same time, I know that this void will be filled with memories, with the moments we shared, with laughter, tears, conversations, silences. These memories will become part of me, part of my story, part of my soul.

I know you will leave, but I also know that our love will live on.

She will live on in me, in the memories, in the lessons I learned. This love shaped me, changed me, made me stronger. And for that I am grateful to you.

Loving someone you can't hold is like holding a butterfly in the palm of your hand. You know he will fly away, but still you hold him gently, admiring his beauty, feeling his fragility. And when he flies away, you are left with the memory of his beauty, of that moment when you had him by your side.

When I love you, I learn how to love freely, without chains, without expectations. Loving you means letting you go when the time comes.

And when you're gone, you'll still be a part of me

Your love will be like the light that will illuminate my path, like the warmth that will warm my heart, like the strength that will lead me forward. I am grateful for this love, for this experience, for you. I will always love you.
