Letting Go?

"Saying, 'If you love someone, you have to let them go.' It's absurd. It's monstrous to simply dispose of someone you love. Yet is this better? To simply lose yourself? To become void of feeling, to shed all the better things of myself for the purpose of becoming numb? Maybe it's equally inhumane, but it's easier than letting go."
