Don’t bother comparing us,
Simply won’t do,
We share similar parts,
But totally different hues.
Sensing your internal struggle,
Trying to decide between two,
Confessing to you now,
She’s finding her way back to you.
Knowing your confidence all too well,
I’ll offer, what I know to be true,
I prefer to continue alone,
If she still owns any part of you.
“This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any” m

I have to stand for her, if I don’t then there’s no one. Thank you, Ben

It’s hard to concede that someone else has taken away the relationship that defined you for so long. I wish you peace and an end to this struggle.
