“Dear someone, last time I wrote to you, I was broken. I didn’t know what to do with myself after you had left, and it felt like I was forever stuck in the same place you left me. I’m better now. Since then, I moved to a bigger city, met new people and saw many new places. I’m building a life for myself. A life that will hopefully be filled with happiness and love. I’m building myself a future in which I am the most important person in it. I’ve stopped being just a secondary character in this beautiful play I call life. I’m tending to my needs first before I look right and left to tend to someone else’s. That doesn’t mean that I’ve become cold, doesn’t mean that I’ve lost my kindness and warmth. It means that at the end of the day I’m leaving some of the good for me too. After you had left me, I didn’t think that I’d ever feel happiness again. I thought that life was meant to be miserable and grey. And whilst life is hard, it is also a composition of all the beautiful, magnificent things. It’s waking up in the morning, realising that you have the day off and that you can roll around in bed just a little longer. It is drinking coffee at your favourite place, and spending time with your favourite people. It is educating yourself and always striving to be better. But it’s also crying your eyes out because nothing makes sense, and feeling better afterwards. Since you left me, I’ve accomplished a list of things I thought I was unable to accomplish. I live on my own now, and while it’s scary and lonely sometimes it’s also the best decision I’ve ever made. I’m living hundreds of kilometres away from home and I now know the true definition of home. I know that I’ve changed and that I will continue to change, but I also know that my feelings for certain people will never change. Today I know that distance means nothing if the love and friendship are real. You may have taught me a lot but you leaving me has taught me even more. It’s taught me strength and courage, taught me heartbreak and loss. It’s taught me about love and friendship. It’s taught me a lot about me too. It’s shown me the lengths I go to see other people happy, and how some will never appreciate that. It’s made me realise that I’m a good person that’s been hurt by bad people. But there are good people out there, and one day I will find that one good person that will turn out to be the best person. I can’t wait for that moment but I know that I have a lot of heartbreak to go through until then, because quite frankly, good things don’t come easy. But more often than not, it’s not about the destination but about the journey anyway. You were a huge part of my journey and I’m thankful for that. And whilst my journey hasn’t ended, I’m past the part with you in it. That’s why I’m writing you today. This is goodbye - forever - because I now know that our paths won’t ever cross again, and I’m more than okay with that. Love always, e.”
— e.s. // dear someone. II

Mentre non c'eri
ho imparato l'alfabeto
e le sottrazioni,
ho imparato ad andare in bici,
sono stata premiata per il mio modo di scrivere
ho vinto sette partite di pallacanestro
ho avuto amici nuovi
e sono diventata signorina.
Mentre non c'eri
ho dato il mio primo bacio
mi sono ubriacata per la prima volta
ho iniziato a fumare
sono stata delusa tante volte
e ho deluso a mia volta.
Mentre non c'eri
ho visto l'alba
i miei occhi brillare,
ho imparato a nuotare,
ho avuto attacchi di panico
che mi facevano indebolire i capelli
ho guardato il cielo stellato
della notte di San Lorenzo,
ho pensato di non farcela
e invece non era vero niente.
Mentre non c'eri
ho brindato,
ho cavalcato l'onda,
ho viaggiato da sola,
ho tatuato il tuo nome,
mi sono ritrivata spesso in situazioni più grandi di me
che ho dovuto battere da sola.
Mentre non c'eri
ti ho dedicato tutte le mie vittorie,
il mio scopo nella vita,
ho sofferto tanto,
mi sono fatta male
e ho cicatrici che continuano a sanguinare.
Mentre non c'eri
ti ho pensato in silenzio
ho implorato il tuo ritorno
di notte
mentre nessuno poteva vedermi crollare.
Ma la cosa che faceva più male
era voltarmi
e accorgermi ogni volta
che tu non eri lì.

Our time is up
Your eyes are shut
I won't get to tell you what
I needed you to know
It's dark enough
The moonlight doesn't show
And all my love
Could never bring you home
There's no more stars to find
And I'm too far behind
And I'd love to let you go
I'd love to let you go
You're all that's on my mind
I called a thousand times
And I have to let you go
But I love you more and more than you could know
I sat alone
Awaited your reply
Was driven home
When I started to cry
I should've known
I should've said goodbye
I only hoped
I would've had more time
There's no more stars to find
And I'm too far behind
And I'd love to let you go
I'd love to let you go
You're all that's on my mind
When I called a thousand times
And I have to let you go
But I love you more and more than you could know
We're both too young
To live and die this way
A sunny summer day
With so much left to say
Not 21
The 18th out of pain
The day you couldn't stay
You made me wanna pray
But I think God's fake
There's no more stars to find
And I'm too far behind
And I'd love to let you go
I'd love to let you go
You're all that's on my mind
When I called a thousand times
And I have to let you go
But I love you more and more and more and more and more
More and more, more and more and more than you will ever know
You will never know
You will never know
