A Letter from your Loved One

ree

If you’re reading this, it means you’re thinking of me. And oh, how I’m thinking of you. I wish I could reach out, touch your hand, and remind you in person of how deeply, how endlessly, I love you. But since I can’t, let me tell you this: I’m still here, in the quiet spaces of your life, in the memories we made together, and in the ways I see you now.


I watch you, you know. I see the way you carry yourself when the weight of missing me feels too heavy to bear. I see how you stop sometimes, eyes glistening, when something small—a song, a smell, a phrase—brings me rushing back to you. I see how you try to be strong, even though I know your heart feels like it’s been cracked wide open.


I see you laughing, too. Yes, I see those moments—the ones when joy sneaks in despite it all. You’re so beautiful when you laugh. It’s one of the things I loved most about you. And in those moments, I’m right there with you, smiling at the sound of your happiness.


Do you remember those mornings when the sun poured through the window, and we were just... us? No plans, no rush, just time together. I do. I hold those moments close, just as I hope you do. There was magic in them, even though we didn’t realize it at the time. The kind of magic that lingers, long after the moment has passed.


But the truth is, the magic isn’t just in the memories we shared. It’s in the way you’re living now. It’s in the way you keep going, even when it’s hard. It’s in the way you love others with the same open heart you loved me. It’s in the way you honor me—through the little traditions, the quiet reflections, and the way you whisper my name when you need me.


You might feel broken some days, but I see your strength. I see the way you hold on, even when you don’t feel like you can. And I need you to know this: you’re not alone. I’m still with you; in every tear you cry and every smile you share. I am with you in the sunlight that warms your face, the wind that brushes your cheek, and the stars that light your path at night.


So, when you feel me close—because you will—let it remind you of all the love we shared. Let it remind you that I’m not truly gone. I’m right here, in the memories we created, in the person you’ve become, and in the magic of every single day you continue to live.


Carry that magic with you, my love. Keep living, keep loving, and keep finding joy. That’s how I’ll know you remember me—not just with tears, but with a heart full of the love that will always bind us together.


With all my love,

Me.
