The worst part after parting away from the people you once loved the most is not their absence but everything that reminds you about their presence in the past —
Because when you hear that song, you will think about the time where you both were singing and dancing together — when you see their favourite colour, you will think of how they decorated their whole room in that colour — when you look at the photos, you will think about all the good times you spent together — when you see their favourite food, you will think about how messily they gobbled up the entire meal in a few minutes — when you visit that place, you will think about all the talks you shared with them — it's like you will see a piece of them everywhere you go.
Because no matter how hard you try to erase them, the reminder of their existence follows like a shadow.
So, the hard part is not letting go of that person, it's letting go of the memories because people leave, but their legacy stays behind.
// Because the flowers wither but the dead petals stay behind — because autumn ends but the fallen leaves stay behind. //
