I am glad it happened. All said and done, I am glad. Yes, this is the most terrible pain, like someone is ripping my insides. Like there'll never be bright blue skies again. Like a train has collided into me headlong. Like someone is crushing my lungs and I can't breathe. Like I'm being sucked into a blackhole from where there's no coming back. Like there will never be any laughter, jokes, or joy again between us. Like you took the most precious part of me and let it bleed to death. Like my whole life has been a lie. But I am glad that the bubble has burst. I now know where I'm really at. 

 And isn't it true that destruction precedes creation? You bring down the old to build the new. Maybe this is a new beginning for me. Time will heal. Time will heal. Thank God for time.
