Muva's Letters

 Why do you feel so near and so far at the same time?

Somehow you live in my heart, but not in my arms. You exist in my thoughts, but not in my life the way I want you to. You feel close enough to touch, yet unreachable in the same breath. And that contradiction hurts in a way I can’t fully explain , like loving something through glass. I can see you. I can feel you. But I can’t quite reach you. This connection doesn’t feel random. It doesn’t feel casual. It doesn’t feel light. It feels ancient. Heavy. Familiar. Like something written before either of us knew what our names would be. It feels like karma ,  unfinished business, unspoken truths, emotions that didn’t get to land where they were meant to. But it also feels like healing ,  like you came into my life not just to love me, but to wake something inside me that had been sleeping. And that duality is what breaks me. Because part of me feels like you’re here to teach me something painful. And part of me feels like you’re here to show me something beautiful. And I don’t know which part to believe. I don’t know if you’re meant to stay or simply pass through. I don’t know if you’re a lesson or a lifetime  or both. But I already see what this connection holds. I see the laughter , the kind that comes unexpectedly, the kind that spills out of your chest when you’re not guarding yourself, the kind that makes everything feel lighter than it was moments before. I see the way your smile softens rooms, the way your presence calms storms inside me I didn’t even know were raging. I see the warmth, the joy, the moments where time slows just enough for me to breathe again. And I also see the tears. I see the misunderstandings, the silence, the distance that doesn’t make sense but still finds its way between us. I see the moments of longing , the nights where your name feels heavy in my chest, where missing you hurts more than losing you ever could. I see the ache of wanting something that feels mutual but complicated, real but unfinished, close but unreachable.

This connection feels like standing in sunlight and rain at the same time. It feels like comfort and grief coexisting in the same breath. Like healing and heartbreak holding hands. Like something beautiful trying to bloom in soil that hasn’t fully healed yet. And maybe that’s why it hurts , because it feels alive, but not fully available. Real, but not fully accessible. Deep, but not fully held. Sometimes I wonder if you feel it too ,  this strange pull, this emotional gravity, this sense that we are circling something important without quite touching it. I wonder if you feel the weight of this connection when you’re alone. I wonder if you ever pause and think of me the way I think of you ,  with tenderness, confusion, longing, and hope all tangled together in your chest.

I try to tell myself not to overthink. Not to attach. Not to feel too deeply. But this doesn’t feel like something shallow I can skim over it feels like something my soul recognizes, even if my life can’t place it yet. And I don’t know how to unfeel something that doesn’t feel optional. This connection feels karmic because it stirs old wounds I didn’t know were still open. It challenges my fears of abandonment, my fear of waiting, my fear of loving something I can’t fully have. It exposes the parts of me that want certainty, clarity, safety and yet feel drawn to something uncertain, undefined, unfinished. But it also feels healing because you soften me. You make me feel seen without trying. You make me feel understood without explanation. You make me feel safe without promises. You make me feel alive without effort. And that combination ,  that rare mix of calm and intensity , is what undoes me.

I already know this connection will change me, no matter how it ends. I already know I won’t walk away the same person I was before you. I already know something in me is opening, cracking, reshaping , even if you never stay long enough to see the full transformation. And that hurts , because I want you to witness what you’re awakening in me. Some nights I sit with tears in my eyes not because I’m sad exactly, but because I feel too much. Because loving you feels like standing on the edge of something sacred and fragile at the same time. Because I don’t know whether to lean in or let go. Because I don’t know whether to trust the feeling or protect my heart. Because I don’t know whether this connection is meant to grow roots or simply pass through like a storm that waters the ground and leaves, But I do know this: You feel like something important. You feel like something meaningful.
You feel like something my soul recognizes even when my life can’t place you. And maybe some connections aren’t meant to be owned.
Maybe some connections aren’t meant to last. Maybe some connections aren’t meant to stay. Maybe some connections are meant to awaken.
To soften. To heal. To remind. To teach. To crack hearts open in places that were sealed too tightly. To show us what love could feel like ,  even if it doesn’t stay long enough to become what we hoped. But God… that doesn’t make missing you easier. That doesn’t make the distance hurt less.
That doesn’t make the near-but-far feeling stop aching. That doesn’t make the unanswered questions quiet.

Because loving you feels like holding something beautiful that keeps slipping through my fingers , not because I’m not trying hard enough, but because it was never fully mine to hold. And yet… I still feel you. In songs. In silence.
In moments that should be ordinary but suddenly aren’t. In spaces where your name rises uninvited. In places where my heart softens without permission.

You feel near in my soul. And far in my reality. And that might be the most painful kind of love ,  the kind that exists, the kind that feels real,
the kind that feels mutual, the kind that feels deep, the kind that feels unfinished, the kind that feels like both karma and healing at the same time.

I don’t know what we are. I don’t know what we will be. I don’t know what we were meant to become. But I do know this:

You will always be someone who changed me. Someone who touched something sacred inside me. Someone who showed me what connection could feel like. Someone who taught my heart how to feel again. Someone who made love feel both terrifying and beautiful at once. And maybe that’s enough.
Even if it hurts. Even if it ends. Even if it never fully begins. Still… You feel near. And far. And somehow ,  unforgettable.
