"You really loved her?" they ask you softly. And how could you say anything other than yes? You had never known a love as pure as mine for you, had never felt the way you do for me.
"Who wouldn't?"
It wasn't a question. Or maybe it was, but you already knew the answer. No-one.
"And she loved you?"
"More than I knew humanely possible."
"Then why did she leave?"
The question hit like a gunshot. Its bullet pierced the walls of the room in your heart built just for me. Walls incapable of climbing, walls previously though indestructible. Though I was no longer present, it was your intent to keep me for all of the future.
"She left because she finally realized what I had warned her of all along. I wasn't worth it. I didn't give or treat her like she deserved, and the whole time I let her fight the world to be by my side. "
"So what happened?"
"She moved on with her life and I pretended to do the same."
