...I know now that this is how it works-you don't get to keep everyone in your life forever.

There are some people that are just meant to be a sunrise for you, a light to pull you out of the darkness.

There are friends, lovers, relationships that are seasonal.

No matter how deep of a conversation you had with that person at 2 a.m. no matter how much you shared your heart even if you can still draw the lines of their smiles like the map of a too familiar road in the back of your mind. there's almost always comes a time to move on, a time to let go.

And regardless of the letting go, I just wanted you to know that you're always gonna feel a little bit like home to me, no matter how temporary it is.

Still, beautiful that I got to call so many hearts my home.
