The Truth

December 4, 2016

If I leave you for who I love, Am a monster or a romantic?

Those two seemingly synonyms.

I never wanted there to be a decision that I had to make

between the person I love and the person who loves me.

But I feel that being in love is a mutual action.

That love is not one sided. That that's just infatuation.

And when I see him, I see a reflection of myself.

Yes, maybe I should've stayed out of decency for you.

Because I know that you gave me your whole heart.

And I'm sorry that I couldn't be the person for you that he is for me.

But I'm not sorry for telling you the truth.
