There’s something I’ve carried for years.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYQRR8L1jA
Something I never had the courage to say — not even when I sat beside you every single day, not even when your voice was the only comfort I knew.
We were best friends.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEsgVyAirc
You let me in, shared your secrets, laughed with me, cried with me, made memories that stretched across years.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIu0GxxWuu
And I held them all like tiny treasures.
But somewhere along the way…79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpKjn9OGyN
I fell in love with you.
Not in a loud, dramatic way.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KFtOdGd5y
Not in a way that ever asked for anything back.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQtSRvM3M3
I just… loved you.
In the quietest, deepest corners of my soul.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCirlwIbpK
In the spaces between your words.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7wazUTWle
In the silence after your voice.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYZqLOU2Qq
In the warmth of every “pagal” you called me.
I listened when you spoke about her — the girl you liked.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WHNo5srbJ
I helped you find the words, plan the replies, understand your feelings.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2l4RDlcMx
And with each sentence I gave to help you be closer to her…79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNxxkG3MmJ
I lost a little piece of myself.
Because I wasn’t just your friend.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYyeXxFrRo
I was the one who stayed up late, not to talk — but to overthink every conversation we had.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jETZvrj3I
I was the one who replayed your voice in my mind when everything felt heavy.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpl7ndCYJi
I was the one who watched you choose others — and still smiled, like it didn’t hurt.
But Zuni, it did.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVi2OxKJ266
It hurt more than you’ll ever know.
The world saw you as the strong one. The admired one.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7JAfFy8gn
But I saw something softer — something only I got to know.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNBMt8OKW8
Your laughter that came after anger.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO4LfyWEuD
The way you forgot things but remembered how to make people feel loved.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3lH82mTdW
The way you chose me, again and again, when others wanted your time — and I thought, just maybe, that meant something.
I remember the night I sent you that video…79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZ4WONcV60
That baby crying, and the words:79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUQ218V6Br
“No one ever says they miss me…”
And you replied —79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvnezZl9M0
“Pagal… you are always missed. Always remembered.”
Zuni…79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmjXlcGoqG
You didn’t know, but I broke that night.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ca0LW3LZh
Because that was the closest I ever came to hearing what I had waited years to hear.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprO7K3looG
And it still wasn’t what I needed.
The truth is, you never knew what I carried inside.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsvIqJfCKc
How every word I said was soaked in feelings I buried.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYai83DDvW
How every smile I gave hid the pain of being almost everything to you…79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2eBySYl5j
But never the one thing I wanted to be.
We still talk.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKmU9LSgRM
Every day.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJYt7J4JkR
Like everything is fine.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDH2TR0Z1Ua
Like there’s no storm behind the screen.
But every message I send is a love letter written in disguise.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KtawPrPUk
Every reply is me pretending that “friend” was ever enough.
And you’ll never know.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmGR4vWtrC
Because I will never tell you.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoW8NffjUfQ
Not because I’m afraid —79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNhCoo4y4B
But because I love you too much to ruin the only place I exist in your life.
Maybe Allah never wrote your heart for me.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmnqkYortJ
Maybe I was just meant to love you from the edge of your world… and pray for you from a distance.
So I do.
I pray that you are always happy.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2xg7ySPSI
That your heart is always full.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cWeAoZBvZ
That the person you choose gives you every joy I once dreamed of giving you.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMY6SoZ0ZA
And I pray — selfishly, quietly — that if you ever wonder if someone truly loved you without asking for anything…79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhTD4DG8CX
You’ll think of me.
Not as the friend who stayed.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonumFCUgPj
But as the heart that broke —79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl99pHM4obT
And still kept loving.
Always,79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEr1GJy7onI
your friend...................79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDXVu7bII3
—The girl who never told you. But always meant it.
