Peace Without You

Today I learned that being me always here for you, always yours in intimacy was never enough. I did not give you the peace your soul was searching for. It shatters my heart… how did we come to this? I learned today you were looking for comfort in someone else’s words, and all this time I thought I was your world. Have I taken you for granted? Was it my fault all along? I gave everything I had, but maybe I was giving all the wrong things. I love you so deeply that sometimes I wonder… If I can’t make you happy, maybe I should let you go. Maybe if I were with someone I didn’t love, I wouldn’t weigh on his soul. And you.. you’d be with someone who doesn’t love you like I do, but maybe she’d give you peace. And then… we would both have peace. But would I ever be happy? If I found peace and you found peace… does that truly mean happiness?
