Love Has Many Layers

Confusion is usually the crossing guard at this juncture in one's life and I was no different. I was torn with anger at the loss we were no longer together.

I've heard it said, "If you honestly love someone let them go if they no longer want to stay."

One day I bumped into a mutual friend who told me she had met another and was happy. As he walked away I'm comfortable knowing my love finally brought her happiness.
