To Aphrodite:
A Final unsent letter
Hi! How have you been? Have you been eating well? I think I know the answer. It has been too long since we last talk. Have you found the love you've been seeking for?
I'M GLAD IF YOU DID.
You know it hurts too much to know you've found the love you've been searching in ours. A love that I cannot provide. Because how can a mere mortal like me give that to a goddess like you?
Those were all my fault. I'm sorry if I was confused and couldn't decide. Sorry I had to make you cry. If I ever made you question your worth. But YOU'LL ALWAYS GONNA BE WORTH RISK!
I do not regret letting you go. It hurt me but that was the best decision my simple nimble mind can do. At least I was once loved by you—even if it didn't last.
I'll always remember your smile, the effortless laugh and your eyes that exudes the glory of all the galaxies. In my mind will always be your captivating beauty, playing back as if you're a song that I couldn't forget, even if I tried. I'll remember you in every Ridley's song I'll ever hear. You'll always be the Aphrodite. A goddess, that no matter how Icarus will try to fly he will never reach.
I would have traded everything, just to hug you one more time and to hear your voice for the last time. I'll miss the rants and everyday chats of how stressful a PNUAN can be. Yes, you're a goddess but even a goddess needs a home. I'm glad I was once that Home. You might not be perfect for others but all the flaws made me love you more. I swear to Zeus I'll hunt every beast and complete every adventure like Hercules did just to win you back again. BUT I WON'T.
I won't. Cause you're already loved and taken care of. A love so true it made you better. So pure it change you. I miss the old version of you, the version that loved me but I love that version of you. Please stay the same.
I'll forever write songs, create melodies and heck I even wrote a book just for you. Yet, you'll not hear it anymore. I wanna say "I wanna wait" until I'll hear you say "are you still waiting?" but that would be selfish. So even if the lights are still red, I'll slowly move on.
I'll hold on to that memory of love, even if it's fleeting. I'll forever a part of you enemy. I knew it wasn't forever but at least I can say you were mine and that will forever be enough. I know I'll never get you back but I'll forever be grateful for the time we had.
At least for a moment I was love by her. And nobody can ever take that away from me. You are my living proof that love is never wasted. If I had to do it again, I'll gladly do so. But not in this life. Thank you for this experience.
~Icarus
