Dear Love, I hope this letter finds you well.

On the day you discovered that chat
I berated myself for my own shortcomings
I reprimanded my sister for her lack of understanding
I accused you of seeing through my façade
 
 
I remember the trepidation I felt when I handed you my phone
I couldn't find the right words to justify my actions
So I left you with the phone
Hoping you would be content with just the music
And not delve into the deeper aspects of my life
 
 
But I returned too late.
Before I could request the phone back
I saw the hurt in your eyes
I waited for your confrontation
But it never came

I cooked, we ate and slept
As if nothing had happened
 
I checked my WhatsApp
All my new messages had been read
Confirming that you had already seen the chat

I didn't lie to you intentionally
It was through omissions and half-truths
But that is no excuse
What has been done cannot be undone
 
I am sorry for withholding parts of myself from you
For not being open and honest in our relationship
For not being the person you deserve
 
Love
