A soft letter to the girl I used to be β€” the one who loved with her whole heart, believed in magic, and felt everything so deeply.
Somewhere along the way, I became more careful. But today, I felt her again.

This piece is for anyone who has ever wondered if they lost their softness.
You didn’t. It’s still there β€” waiting for you to come home to yourself.

πŸ’Œ P.S. I love you.

00:00Dear younger me, I saw you today.
00:03Not in a mirror, but in a memory.
00:06And for a moment I remembered just how beautifully soft you were.
00:10How your heart used to ache with dreams and hope.
00:12How every little romantic gesture felt like magic.
00:16And every heartbreak felt like the end of the world.
00:19You were so full of love.
00:21So full of longing.
00:24So certain that one day someone would show up and hold your heart the way you held theirs.
00:28And I want you to know I love that about you.
00:31You weren't foolish.
00:33You were brave.
00:34You dared to believe in something tender in a world that isn't always kind to tenderness.
00:40But over time I had to protect us.
00:42I had to become more pragmatic.
00:45I had to learn where to place boundaries.
00:46How to stop pouring into cups that never poured back.
00:50I became quieter, more cautious.
00:52Not because I stopped believing in love.
00:55But because I needed to believe in myself first.
00:57Still, you never left me.
01:00You're still here.
01:02You are in the quiet moments when I watch the rain or when a song stirs something I forgot I could feel.
01:07You are the reason I still notice beauty.
01:10You are the reason I never let cynicism win.
01:14Thank you for being the kind of girl who loved fearlessly.
01:17And don't worry, I haven't forgotten you.
01:19I'm just learning how to carry you gently with the strength I've earned.
01:24With love, me, older, wiser, but still yours.
01:28You are the reason I also know.
01:29I'm just learning how to carry you gently with the strength I've earned.
