Dear Faye,
You once asked me why I let him go when I loved him...
Why did you let him go, Lake, when you loved him?
He loved another, I had answered wistfully. You could see the longing in my eyes and the sadness I tried so hard to hide.
But you loved him! Don't people fight for ones they love?
They do, Faye. I knew it then too. I remember smiling at your innocence.
We fight for people we love. We fight for them to stay in our lives. Sometimes though, You need to let them go for their happiness.
"He was happier with her. You let people you love leave if they find happiness somewhere else," I had replied.
What about your happiness?
It lies with him.
But, it shouldn't have been that way. My happiness should have laid with me. Faye, don't make the same mistakes I did. I loved people hard and I don't regret it. But, I gave too much of me and that's why I was empty half the time. Love endlessly, yet keep your happiness within you.
Yours,
Layken <3
