You were not what I expected. I heaped praise and glory on you, only to see that you were human and flawed like me. I thought you were perfect and would never hurt me but I was wrong. You were better than my idea of perfect and gave me more than you ever took or caused in grief. You let me love you so unselfishly and completely, without limit or constraint. The best thing that ever happened to me was knowing you and feeling your heart, only to eventually lose you and have my heart so irreparably broken. You didn't leave me willingly, nor would I ever have left you but what separated us was not in our control. Did I appreciate you enough in life, did you ever really know just how much I loved you? You may have but I never did, until I lost you. You in person were the object of my affection and even after you passed my love for you did not. All I have left of you now are photographs and memories, and though I am alone I'm still a better person for having loved you, because you have indefinitely changed me for the good. You were the light of my life and now my time has come and soon the darkness. But if the love we shared made the world a little brighter place, then my cup runneth over and I have been a wealthy person. I was overjoyed to live with you, distraught when I lost you, and now fulfilled knowing that our love will never truly die. For the light of our love is the part of us that lives on and cannot be extinguished by the dark of the night.
