It feels as if a part of me needs you in order to survive, while another part of me wants nothing to do with you at all. Love is strange. It is the shadow standing beneath the sun always there, even when the light feels strong enough. Not everything has a happy ending, but isn’t that what life is about? Making mistakes, falling, and finding the strength to stand up again. We can’t have everything we want. And maybe that is okay.
