Your absence was the beginning of me finding myself.
Your absence was the beginning of me learning to distance myself from people like you.
I liked keeping people close to me.
I liked being around the ones I loved all the time.
I loved sharing my space with the ones who mattered to me.
It was on its way to forgetting me.
And for the longest time, I blamed the distance.
I blamed the circumstances but I couldnt get myself to blame you.
I couldnt admit that maybe it wasnt so much about distance but more about you beingdistant.
Pete Bellis
The distance you created.
The distance you enjoyed.
But now Im thankful for your distance.
Im glad you picked distance over me because it taught me that I can live without you.
It taught me that I can love after you.
It taught me that some departures are really blessings in disguise.
Your distance was a blessing to me because it showed me that I was settling with you.
I never paid attention to the list of things you always put before me.
I never noticed that I was losing myself by staying with you.
Your distance was a blessing because it taught me that distance isnt something to be feared.
That with the right person, distance wont matter.
I learned that Im a person worth loving and I shouldnt sell myself short for anyone.
Your absence taught me more things about myself than your presence ever did.
Your absence was the beginning of me finding myself.
Your absence was the beginning of me learning to distance myself from people like you.
Your distance was a blessing, your presence was the curse.
