Things I Learned Today

Even after pushing me away once again, even though we haven't spoken in more than a month, when I see you... I still smile.

But I realized something. I'm completely disenfranchised in this saga; it's as though I'm watching someone put together a jigsaw puzzle but can't participate. It's not completely your fault. I let you do this. There's a way to change that, but it's not a price I'm willing to pay.

I'll stay the course. From this vantage point, it's still the best strategy. But I don't have to like it.
