"Living in the fast lane", a letter
I once read “True love is tested when betrayed.” If that’s the case, must all true love be betrayed? & the ones that were never tested.. Is that love true?
I don’t know if I would ever get these answers nor do I know what the future holds but what I do know is…our love was indeed tested. We became part of a cliché, a quote, a saying, if you must… You became a man that had to protect his true intentions & lied. I became a woman that had to protect her heart & cried. Yet, I don’t see your soul any differently. You’re not a horrible being & I am not a hopeless victim. I cannot hate you nor have I ever hated you; forgive me for words were spoken when the hearts weren’t pure and minds weren’t clear. We both had to become humans we weren’t extremely proud of but that’s what we are.. humans & humans make mistakes. I am not here to judge nor to hold a grudge. I’m here to forgive because forgiving someone is very powerful; it shows the true strength of your heart.
So, I write this letter to you tonight to thank you. You have taught me a lot; a lot about myself. You have strengthen my faith, my faith in love. We were a lesson that had to be taught.
