Try to Comprehend, My Love.
Love is a journey, not always side by side in body, but in spirit.
One night, we fought.
You lashed out at me.
I said ok.
You lashed out again.
I said ok.
You said, “I’m sorry. Please forgive me. I need to heal.”
In that moment. I fell deeper in love with you.
I have prayed for you every single day since that time.
These days.
I love you from far away.
But I still pray.
And
I still love you. I love you unconditionally.
I want you to know that I have barriers in place now and pray for you from behind my gates and walls.
Where you cannot see nor hear nor access me.
Not because I do not love you.
Or believe it possible you will still be my husband someday.
But because through your love I needed to learn
How to love someone unconditionally, no matter whether we were together or not, while also loving myself to the same level.
So I love you and protect myself at the same time.
