So, you are married. I really do wish you happiness and well being. It is what I always wanted most for you. Of course, I was hoping you would be happy with me…. but that ship sailed a long time ago.
Your marriage (to someone else) marks the end of this adventure. I can now let go of silly hope and foolish wonder. I can let it all be in the past and know it will finally stay there and has no hope of coming ’round again.
I truly hope you are happy and loved. (I mean it, I really do.) Your happiness will outweigh the sorrow and sadness I feel and have felt these last four and a half years. Because, then my sorrow would have been for good cause. My efforts – to help you when I could, to pack you up and move you away from me, to encourage and support you, to cry with you – would all be worth while to bring you happiness.
You were my true love. I shall never forget your kindness and tenderness. I will always remember how you bared yourself emotionally to me. I will cherish the joys you have given me until I die. I know you don’t believe I loved you or you don’t understand why. But, I remind you with this post, Why I Love You.
