VEIL OF FRIENDSHIP


My dearest ______,

I know you will never read this, and I know that you will never truely know the depth of my feelings for you. I know I've told you I love you - and I do, oh god how I do - and I know you told me that you didn't know what love was. I had so hoped to be the one to show you. In my vanity, I think that perhaps I have a little bit.

I think about you all the time. You probably know this. I live to hear your voice, and though we're so very far apart, I do hope that one day we will be together, if only through the veil of friendship.

I've told you before, that I wish it were you that I had met, and gotten engaged to. Perhaps if I had waited just a bit longer, you would have come around, and we would be together now. I don't regret loving _______, but I do sometimes remember how I wanted it to be you, when we first met and started talking.

You will always hold such a dear place in my heart. I regret that I must move on from this - I cannot love you completely and marry someone else. I will always love you, but it will be different, but only a little. Our timing was just off by months, and you know, they do say that timing is everything.

Everything happens for a reason - and maybe the reason for this will become clear to us. All I know that is that being friends with you will not dampen my feelings for you at all. They will only grow with time, and respect, and hope for your future, and for mine.

And maybe, one day..... you never know. Perhaps in another life time. Hopefully next time, we'll get it right.

Loving you always, me
