Dear Mak.

I loved you

Deeply

Genuinely

Openly

You felt like the soulmate I never knew I needed

You made me laugh

You stood up for me when I was too small to speak

You seemingly always had my back

I so badly wish that you hadn’t become what you are

So that we could still be the power duo we always were

How could you steal so much from me

When at one point you loved me

Loved me enough to permanently etch my initials on your skin

Sometimes I still feel so mad at you that my eyes well up with tears

But then I see old photos and remember the good times in our years

I don’t wonder where you are now because I have no idea who you are now

But I hope one day you come to understand that I loved you and supported you and carried you until our very

Very

Very

cold and bitter end
