THE LOVE THAT WAS NEVER ENOUGH



I have been doubting love for as long as I can remember. 
I was once a victim of that so called ‘love’.
Gave too much and received a little.
Loved too deep and fell too hard.

I was a witness to a true love that wasn’t enough.
They loved each other, but love alone couldn’t keep them together.
They were hurt too much and sacrificed a lot.
But sadly, the love they thought would last, ended bitterly.

When they met, they knew next to each other was what they wanted.
They believed in forever and made a vow.
For better or for worse.
But death didn’t do them apart.

Love was never enough, but they tried.
And tried
And tried
They tried until there was nothing left to fight for.

They knew they loved each other,
But they needed to let go.
They loved each other so much they had to let each other go
To save the other from all the pain

It was for the best.
Maybe one day they’ll meet somewhere,
Maybe in a place they used to go to,
Maybe by accident, or by fate.

Maybe someday they can look at each other and smile.
Maybe they can have coffee together and talk like old friends.
Maybe not to start over, but to thank each other for letting go.
For loving each other truly even if it means that they’ll be happier apart.
