One Last Love Letter

You're better off without me now.  And I'm fine with that.
I'm just a footnote in your life, in a section you'd rather keep closed forever.  And I'm fine with that.

But you only saw me in pieces and fragments, only through the lens of what you didn't want to see.

I took the loss so you wouldn't have to.  Because if losing means that you'll win, then I will lose every time.
If misery is my only reward, then I'll take it.  I'll gladly trade my happiness for yours.  Every single time.

I never wanted it without you anyway.
