a few years ago i met someone who had an incredibly beautiful soul, like legitimately one of the most beautiful i've ever come across. naturally i fell in love with them. i could never be with them for social reasons, but i continued to admire them from afar. i ended up contacting them one day and we spent a year getting to know each other and working together. the thing is, they ended up having to move away recently, meaning i would likely never see them again (plus, i believe they recently got engaged).
i can't stop thinking about them even now. no matter what i do to try to distract myself, they always come back to haunt me. i can't go anywhere or do anything without being reminded of them. everything and everyone in the world seems so awful compared to them, like now that i've lost them there's no point in going on. it's like they've somehow poisoned me, infecting every inch of me and leading me to ruin. i don't know if i'll ever be able to meet someone as wonderful as them ever again, and i worry that every person i come across is just going to end up being compared to them. i don't know if i'll ever escape from them.
i will admit that i have obsessive tendencies and i likely would have polluted them with my ugliness if we'd gotten any closer. but i long for them anyways, and i know i'll never be with them. i just want to escape from this, and death seems like the only option right now. i realize that killing yourself over love is fairly common and seen as something that's not worth it, but i can't get the suicidal urges out of my mind. i just want to be at peace.
