Love Isn’t Enough

Love isn’t enough to hold us together. We’re both unhappy, and it isn’t fair to either of us to continue. I love you, and I know you don’t understand. But this is stale. Stagnant. Where do you think this is going? Love isn’t enough. You hate me for this, and I only wish I could feel the same. Leaving you would be easier if I hated you. You have been my rock, but together we’re plummeting towards rock bottom. I already miss the sound of your voice, I miss being your baby. I’m sitting here in your old shirt and wishing I wasn’t alone tonight. I sleep so much better with you by my side. But I can’t do this anymore. I love you, but love isn’t enough. And I’m sorry. Hate me all you want, make it easier for yourself and hate me. But don’t forget how you used to love me, and don’t forget how I’ve loved you.

Sad words but facts for some of us on our journey.

I love it , very mature way to look on your relationship
Sometimes love is really not enough , especially if you see no future , or worst when you are not Happy, safe, respected. I love how you describe it well , its not easy to capture
You experinced love , so you know how blind it can make you , but when you openned your eyes, you just felt you want more , it was not enough.

Breaking up is never easy. Wouldn't it be grand if there were soft cushions to land on when the crash finally comes? But - they never are and so we plod along and hope that next time, oh yes - next time.

Take care - Dave

A scalding and indifferent aspect to love itself, well done, good read.
