I really messed up today.  
Yesterday you made me smile all day.
The day before that you told me you loved me.
And every day before that you've made me so unbelievably happy.

But today,
Today was not okay.

Because today I left the only man I've ever loved-
And who ever truly loved me.
I didn't want to leave.
An hour before, you told me you believed in us.

Is it possible that even now I love you more?
It broke my heart to lose you and that's no lie.
But then it broke my very soul to know I made you cry.
You said you weren't sad because of me, you were crying because now I wasn't yours.
God, you have no idea how much you saying that hurt.

You said you understood why we couldn't be together.
And you said you hoped I got better.

Today I left you, but I didn't lose you.
Until the day I die our love will play in the back of my eyelids on a never-ending loop.
