My Broken Love

I miss the thing we were, I miss us
Everything started with you
And everything with you halted
"I am scared to lose you" might have been a joke to you,
But to me it was more than reality could express 
You were my whole world, my Universe, and Everything.
"You mean a lot to me" might have been a joke to you 
But I was more than serious when I said it.
"Forever" might have been a joke to you
But look I still can't hate you, after all 
You did.
I know things were difficult for both of us
But still I chose to cling to you, and you chose to leave.
And that's what makes us different. You chose to love when it's comfortable to you, and I chose to love you in every situation of my life, in every circumstance, in good and in bad.

Thanks for sharing this. God bless you. Today, I greet you with a Joyous New Year with this prayer from the Bible in Numbers 6:24-26, "The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace."

Ah unconditional love is tragic when not returned. I feel the angst and loss of hope in the relationship. Great write!
