Both sending letters, they tore their love apart— each line like a "don’t leave me," they looked like real love letters. Reading between the lines, you’d see who played the part. The strange thing is, the culprit was not of either heart. Jealousy, the silent fire, gave context and reasons, possessing their prey, it moved without control. Can love be found again, by one who shared the blame? Can a fractured soul find wholeness through forgiveness, love, and name? Your sorrowed letters shake me, each farewell cuts me through. Some of us never get letters— not of friendship, nor of loss, much less of love from you.
