And I thought I was strong

Cried a bucket in the toilet before we left the apartment and I told myself I have to be strong or you will start pouring. 

But nope. I wasn't strong back there when we had our farewell hug. So when I came back, I thought about everything positive... Even when the sky started to change with dark clouds, I made fun of how it reflected my feelings now and how it's gonna be a cold lonely night. 

But I couldn't hold out anymore when I saw that you left a letter for me. I haven't read it yet. But I know I'll lose myself after I do. 

The past month was one of the happiest time of my life. You were literally the guide, and I was sheltered by your care. Now you're gone, and the true challenge begins. I keep telling you to be strong and independent and have fun... I'm actually just telling myself all these. 

Really, thanks for whatever you have done to make this trip such a success and it is the best farewell gift. I sometimes think I'm kind of an insufficient boyfriend... Didn't buy anything for our anniversary or your 21st and only a small parting gift before my absence of 4.5 months. 

But really, I know this absence will only make us stronger... And we will survive this!!!
