“I’m starting to forgive myself

for circumstances that are beyond

my control. Like the way you wanted to

move on when all I wanted you to do

was stay and keep fighting.

I can’t keep hating myself for you.

I can’t keep feeling like shit

when you’re the one who left

because you thought that this

was becoming too much for you.

You say give it time, you say

that I deserve better, you say

that this was never meant to be.

But just a few weeks ago

you were kissing my neck

and touching my skin

and telling me that this is it,

that this was everything

you could have ever imagined

when it comes to true love.”
