I wasn’t selfish in the way I loved you…
I wasn’t selfish in the way I loved you…
I gave up everything for you….
My life…
My self….
My joy….
My happiness….
My peace….
Because I loved you….
You were everything to me.
Everything.
And when I lost you….
I wasn’t okay.
I wasn’t okay.
Along the road to healing and forgiveness….
Past the gates of grief….
I had to love me too.
And losing all of me….
Led me back to a place where I could begin to love myself.
The parts of me that were abandoned and left alone….
And I still loved you…
I still wish you well.
But in all the ways I lived….
I wasn’t selfish in the ways I loved you….
