Treasure...
I've always told myself to treasure whatever I have now so that I wun regret if I lose them in the future. Bearing that in mind, I always take good care of whatever I have and is unwilling to relinquish possession of them. Recently I made the biggest decision of my life. I chose to let her go.
The one I loved most, the one whom I spent the most time on over the past 3 years, the one who loved me the most. I've put in so much time, effort and love on her, and yet I let her go. I must be crazy. I must be out of my mind. Almost 3 years of relationship accompanied by many many wonderful, touching and sad memories. There is never a nite I stopped thinking of her, even now. These 2 days, when something suddenly reminded me of her, I'll suddenly freeze and try to recollect the memory, afterwhich I'll feel sad by the thought. My heart feels weak, pain, squashed whenever I think abt the fact that we are no longer together. Whenever I read her blog and found out how sad she is; picked up her call and hear how sad she is, I feel a sense of guilt for making her feel alone and depressed. These sad thoughts made tears welled up in my eyes, made me regret my decision. If it is so painful, then why the hell do I still want to end it???
Anyone who knows me and her will notice something very distinctive. The difference in character. I'm laid back, she's driven; I'm quiet, she's outspoken; I'm calm, she's tempermental. There's a striking difference between the 2 of us. When we dun quarrel, we are very loving. However, when we quarrel, things becomes very different. At the beginning, I was very tolerant. I always tried to calm her down and reasoned with her so that she understand. I've always thought that these quarrels were beneficial to us as we would get to understand each other better and can improve ourselves. However, after so many quarrels, things din get any better. In fact, it got worse. I started to lose my patience, she started to think that my reasonings are crap. Tempers start to flare and things turn nasty. To the extent that I find it was almost impossible for us to communicate anymore. I started to become disillusioned and tired from these quarrels. In spite of all the compromises that we came up with, they din work at all. Sometimes, we do not even have an option or solution. Seriously, after the last quarrel, I asked myself if I can still tolerate this. Both of us are too stubborn and is unwilling to give in at times, resulting in too much hurt and pain on one another.
I really tried my best to make it work. I really did. I keep asking myself what went wrong. Is it me or is it her? Why has my tolerance for her decreased? Is it becos my love for her has decreased? I really dunno. I can't be sure if I wun hurt her again with my words the next time we quarrel again. It greatly saddens me after each quarrel when I thought abt the words that were used on her and me. It is really hurting. I'm not one who give up easily, but I really can't think of a better way for the both of us.
你是我胸口永远的痛
南方天空飘着北方的雪
热情冻结 冷冷风中
你是我胸口永远的痛 永远的痛
昨夜的梦
留给明天 明天
(quoted from the song 你是我胸口永远的痛 by 王杰/林忆莲)
