Five years is like a long river that separates me from my beloved boyfriend. It was a painful decision and a helpless choice, but it was also an unforgettable memory. Five years ago, my boyfriend and I were in the sweet stage of love. However, a sudden change interrupted our peaceful life. It was a choice about family interests and power struggle. I was forced to leave my boyfriend and chose to stay away from home and hide my whereabouts. I left my boyfriend and the place where we once walked together, leaving only his lonely figure and endless thoughts. During that time, I seemed to disappear into the crowd. No one knew where I had gone, and no one knew whether I was doing well or not. I just silently endured the pain and struggle in my heart, trying to find a way out of my own. However, a twist of fate has caused me to experience countless ups and downs in the past five years. I once wandered in a strange city and tried to forget the past and start a new life. However, every time in the dead of night, I would think of my boyfriend's smile and warmth, which was my only comfort in the most painful time. Time goes by and five years have passed. I went from being a nobody to being the CEO of a multinational company. I have wealth and status, but the longing and regret deep in my heart never disappear. At this time, my boyfriend suddenly came back from abroad and appeared in front of me. There was a hint of exhaustion and vicissitudes in his eyes, but they still shone with deep attachment to me. He said he had been looking for me and had been waiting for me to come back. I was stunned, not knowing how to face all this. My heart was filled with excitement and joy, but also deep guilt and uneasiness. I know I owe him an explanation and an apology. I told him why I left, my inner pain and struggle. I told him that I never forgot him and never stopped thinking about him. But I also told him, I don’t know if we can go back to the past, I don’t know if we can make up for these five years. My boyfriend listened to me quietly, his eyes showing deep pain and pity. He said he understood my pain and helplessness and was willing to wait for me to find inner peace and tranquility. He said he loved me, past, present and future. At that moment, I burst into tears. I know that I have found the destination of my soul and the person who is willing to accompany me throughout my life. I also know that no matter what challenges and difficulties I face in the future, I will face them bravely because I have a boyfriend who loves me and supports me. However, I know that these five years of separation are an unbridgeable gap between us. Both of us have changed and have new lives and new experiences. Can we overcome all this and re-establish the love we once had? It's an unknown answer, but I'm willing to try. Because I know that love is tough and can withstand the test of time and distance. As long as we have love in each other's hearts and have that firm belief and persistent spirit, we will be able to overcome all difficulties and come together again.
