We were once good. The best part is that we were all once good in each other's eyes. I still remember how good you were to me. I also know that, at that time, we were all sincere. I don't plan to forget this feeling. Our incompatibility is real, but our sincerity and happiness are also real.

I won't wait for you anymore. The wonderful time we once spent together is the true outcome. I let you go. True letting go means still remembering, but with no more ripple in my heart. Letting go means I finally acknowledge my own worth. I'll give myself another chance to be happy.

Yes, that's the way forward. Sometimes, I still burst into tears because of a touching scene. Sometimes, I can walk such a long distance alone at night. That's all a part of you—the you who is transforming. Moving on doesn't mean going back to the starting point, but becoming a better self. Moving on isn't about walking out of sadness, but about walking towards true happiness.
