Sacrificing Myself, 10/8/17

I sacrificed myself,

Made the right choice,

Yet I cry.

The tears flow.

I pity myself.

I made her happy,

But what am I?

I'm Just a sad human being.

She found her purpose,

She grew to love herself,

She gained confidence.

She gained everything while I gained so little.

It hurts to see her happy without me,

But I do wish for her happiness.

This is the devastating price I pay.

I must leave her be,

So she can continue to grow and leave me.

There's no turning back.

I will do my best,

And continue to sacrifice myself...
