Try to see and love yourself the way he did. To him, you were beautiful and perfect exactly as you are, special for just being you. Don’t let anyone take that from you. Now that he is gone, you must remind yourself and make yourself believe it.

Remember, even when things were at their worst, the one absolute certainty you could always rely on was his love for you. Don’t disrespect his memory by doubting his love still remains, even though he is no longer able to remind you.

Losing him showed me a devastation that could never be described or set to rights. A world, a life, without him and the light he brought to my life was no life at all. Nothing has ever been the same since he's been gone. Nothing will ever be the same.

Note to Self: Try to remember...It only hurts this much because you cared so much. This much pain does not stem from a mediocre love, but one that could move the stars. That is a gift to be cherished always.
