I've been told it's unhealthy,
to hold the ones you love down.
To be falling,
and drag them with you.
That's why,
I have to let you go.
When you get this,
I'll be gone.
I just wanted you to know,
I never hated you.
But........
Everytime you looked at me I saw the pain deep inside,
everytime you cried it tore out a peice of my heart.
Everytime I said you were in danger,
you stuck by me through everything........
When I saw you in pain,
I felt ten times the pain that was most likely cause by me.
When you shed a tear for me,
I wished I could have no pain only so you would stop crying.
Even after all that,
you were there........
I had to let you go,
but know this.
My sweet,
I will always love you.................

Hi there, nice write you have here.
I can understand your love and pain at having so much love...
I really like the beginning:
"I've been told it's unhealthy,
to hold the ones you love down.
To be falling,
and drag them with you."
Nice work with the prompt.
Thank you for your entry and all the best to you!
♥ Char
