The ordeal is finally over. I've been sleeping in my own pity for the past two years, only to realize now that it was never my fault that the relationship ended. To say that a weight has been lifted is an understatement! I swear I will never take responsibility for something without a full explanation ever again. How silly of me to even do so.
ooAs I left Vancouver, I saw the city for what it really was. Small and humble, rich in greens, immense in natural beauty, quiet and understated...but most importantly, the city is no longer about him. Sometimes we connect our lovers to a song, a piece of jewelry, a scent, etc. I connected a past lover to the natural outdoors, and thus began the heartbreak of two years. Ohh, the perils of love.
I'm glad I went away. Although I left my face cream and wash there, I brought the most important thing back - closure.
