"The Torn Heart"

This piece is something I wanted to try a little while back, but lacked the motivation to try. I'll be writing in the format of a letter.

"Dearest Love,

     I know things have been rough lately, and I really do care for you, but I am sorry that I cannot be there.
As you know, my heart is torn between my feelings for you, and feelings for another, and I would rather not harm anyone. I know my decision to stand back and stay clear has been hard on you, and I am sorry for my choice. I hope that one day, I can come back home to you, but I will also understand if you should find another in the time that I am gone. Know that I will always have a special place for you in my heart, and that no matter what, I will always be thinking of you no matter where I may go.

Always yours,

The man who loves you."

It may be a bit gushy for a piece, but it's something that came to mind after hearing about some troubles a friend of mine has been going through. I sincerely hope that one day, things will work out in their life, but for now, what matters is the journey, and the support they may find wherever life takes them.
