To the next person.
This is a letter dedicated to the next person who will enter my life. I don't need you to understand everything about me, but I hope you'll be patient with everything that I do. I am not always nice, I am not always available, I work a lot, I get jealous, I get insecure, I doubt myself, and most times, I daydream.

I don't want to change just because I am not your ideal person, I don't want to feel that I have to compete, I don't want to chase you. I don't want to beg for your attention nor your love. I have done these things and it lead me nowhere.

I want you to see the real me doesn't want to be the centre of attention, I like having a quiet night looking at the stars, and the moon. I like watching the sunset near the beach just because I am not a morning person who is willing to climb a mountain to see the sunrise. I hate large crowds, I like being surrounded by my three best friends. I like my coffee sweet. I like listening, I like conversations about love, goals, and memories that made us humans stronger.

I want to travel, not because couples do it, but because it felt like I have wasted my teenage years not exploring the world.

I want to feel free of doubts if I am important to you. I like words, but I crave for actions.

If you are the next person who will be curious of getting to know me, please do not do it just for fun, do not do it just to satisfy your temporary temptations.

Do it because you value life. Do it because you want to learn how people have lived and trying to live.

Yes, people come and go, but if it is time for you to leave my life, I want us to be happy, cheering for each other to be better in life. And if you intend to stay, please do not take me for granted.

To the next person who I will meet, I hope you take good care of our connection. I maybe hard to understand but I am trying my best to be better at it. Please be patient.

All I can say is that, right now, I am still healing from what I have gone through, and I am praying that no one else goes through it. No one deserves to have their hearts broken just because we ended up giving it to the people with wrong intentions.
