I don't know if I understand.

I see you every now and then - and I feel love, yet don't know if I feel any too. You had a chance to give us a future but you ruined your own life along with our relationship. You try fixing this bond now, but it's too far gone.

It takes immense clarity to admit that you still feel love for someone while also knowing they aren't good for your future. You've described a very specific kind of grief, mourning a life that could have been if they hadn't made those choices. Thank you for your honesty. Writing it out doesn't fix the bond, but it can help untie the knot it has on your heart."
