An End

It's weird to see something end. Something that was so much a part of my life for nearly two years ended the other day with one little seven word sentence. I think we should just be friends. How is it that one sentence can end nearly two years of love. But did that sentence end it or was it just the "Out Loud" ending. My boyfriend broke up with me . . . oddly enough the same day I finally decided enough is enough and I can't fake this anymore. For me it was over long before that sentence. Some where along the way I fell out of love. How does one fall out of love I wonder. For that matter how does one fall in love. Matters of the heart, now there is some messy business. I was sad to see something end. He and I closed the door on love, yet we opened another door, friendship. Now I know all the cynics say once you have been in love you can't be friends. Why not I say? Friendship is just a different kind of love. If you ask me friendship is better than relationship. In my experiences friends stick around longer. Maybe it's just because I haven't had that "great love" experiance, but I love my friends more. I know it will be hard to make that change from lover to friend, but nothing worth having is ever easy. So I say goodbye to a love in the hopes for an amazing friendship.
