It Hurts, But I'm Grateful

It hurts when you have to say goodbye to someone you thought you loved.
It hurts to say goodbye to someone you thought was your friend.

It hurts when you find out the truth about them, when you knew all along, but you just ignored it from day one.
How can you continue to lie to someone for years?............

Maybe it was just me, being blind.

I never knew how I would react when the real truth came out. And I guess it had to be from someone close, to take the binds from my eyes.

I knew all along, but because I saw the potential in you, I looked past your mistakes and loved you for you. You always complained that no one was faithful and loyal to you, but I was. And you see I said "was", because I can no longer be a part of your life or your lies.

You hurt me, but I guess that's why God allowed what He allowed and why He sheltered my heart. It had to be open enough to love you, but sheltered in so that you could not hurt me and forever I will be grateful.
