NO ONE AFTER ME
<p>At this point, I either love you forever, or I spoil you for all those who will come after me.</p><p><br/></p><p>There is no middle path, no clean break, no way to unmake what I will become to you. If I love you, I love you in a way that brands itself into your skin, that lingers in your breath, that alters the rhythm of your heart so that it beats to the memory of me long after I am gone. If I love you, I will be inescapable—not by force, not by chains, but by the sheer gravity of what we were.</p><p><br/></p><p>I will know you deeper than anyone ever will. I will read you like scripture, worship you like a religion, and teach you the language of love in a way no one else ever will. I will ruin you with kindness, with fire, with devotion so unwavering it becomes the standard by which all others are measured. I will give you something real—so real that everything after will feel like a faded echo, a secondhand story, a love diluted beyond recognition.</p><p>If I love you, you will never again settle for anything less.</p><p><br/></p><p>You will move on, or you will try. You will take another’s hand, hold another’s body, whisper another’s name in the quiet of the night. And still, something will be missing. Their hands will not hold you the way mine did. Their voice will not carry the same weight. Their love will not burn the way mine burned. </p><p><br/></p><p>They will be kind, they will be good, but they will not be me.</p><p><br/></p><p>You will wonder if it is fair to them, this shadow of me that lingers between you and every love that follows. But fairness will not change the way you ache for something they cannot give.</p><p><br/></p><p>Because I will have made you feel something that does not come twice.</p><p><br/></p><p>I will have taught you the difference between being loved and being known. Between being held and being worshiped. Between being someone’s choice and being someone’s only choice.</p><p><br/></p><p>And when you realize this—when you feel it, deeply, in the marrow of your bones—you will understand why no one after me will ever truly stand a chance.</p><p><br/></p><p>So choose wisely, because if I love you, I love you forever.</p><p>And if I don’t—then I leave you longing for something no one else will ever be able to give.</p><p><br/></p>
