Love Selflessly

When I said "I love you"

I loved you 

Selflessly 

And though the selfish part of me wanted you to always be mines

Love is not selfish 

So I knew I was suppose to give love selflessly 

I surrender my all to you but it wasn't enough 

So I had to do it

The thoughts of it alone was heart wrenching 

It was the hardest thing I had to do

But it was the most selfless act of true love I could do

I had to let us go

All the thoughts of good times and all the dreams of our future 

I had to let you go

Free from this...

For my happiness stems from knowing that you are happy even if it was I who had to fade out of the picture 

Heartbroken I was

...BUT... I still love you...selflessly
