There were hundreds of explanations, but not enough words.
Many more reasons that we cannot count. I have loved from the beginning, with ups and downs, even when I hated you, to the end.

And then, was it the end ?! Was it really over when we both knew we still had more to accomplish, together. We’d known each other. We grew up together. We hurt each other. I hurt you more? What people did to me, I did to you. Perhaps, because I knew you would forgive and stay.
Perhaps, that is the reason why I left; you were too kind when I was the meanest. And you let me embrace that identity of mine. I wanted more and you had less. I became the stuttering voice of our love, not quite sure to destroy anything.
I became what I tried to run away from: the oppressor.
I was the oppressor, barely able to see what I am writing, choking on what you feel when you love someone but cannot use the words anymore.

I stopped hoping we would find what we lost, but everything will be okay. No one has to fight anymore.
Is this peace?
