Death of an alcoholic love affair.
Goodbye to you my trusted friend. You where the only one that I loved; the only one I could love. We've been together through thick and thick. You where the only one to tell me that I was good enough, that I was somebody. I could always rely on you no matter what time of day, week or season it was, you where always there to listen to me, to help me, to guide me. I loved drinking you in, you where a part of me, an extension of my core being. I had you and you had me, a match made in heaven. I loved you so deeply but no one could ever understand us, it was just you and I against the world. Your sweet voice and taste told me things no other could speak, it seems like no other can be this close to me again.
With all of that said, I have to tell you something. This is going to hurt me more than it will hurt you. I have to leave you now; I am on a new path that you cannot travel. I know, I know, it sounds so scary and frightful. But the pain I feel cannot be dealt or discussed with you any longer. I need to do that with myself and not with you anymore. Simply put, I love to be with myself rather than you. Please don't be jealous or hurt that I left you for myself.....it is time. I know you thought we were going to be together forever but it just didn't work out that way, I'm sorry. It is time for me to take a leap into the great unknown depths of myself, a journey on which I will have to travel without you. I don't mean to hurt you like this, but it is a must.
So I say to you, goodbye....goodbye.....
