"I have to let him go, even though it hurts. I care about his happiness and individuality, but his eyes tell a different story from mine. I understand his feelings of suffocation in this relationship. Without any grip, he feels trapped. I can sense it. Knowing his feelings, I realize I need to release him. But it's hard, given how accustomed I am to his presence i can't express. His absence now feels like a physical ache in my chest. I've come to realize that my feelings have intensified over the past month.
In his eyes, I see a fading reflection of myself, but in my own eyes, his presence is everywhere I go. Even when he's not with me, I see him in everyone around me. This all-consuming love sometimes makes me want to be selfish and hold onto him tightly. But I'm afraid of his frustration, his indifference, his tears, his pain, and his desperation to leave. Those eyes hold more power than my selfish love, so I must let him go."
