Breakup

Almost eight years. That's a long time to spend together. I remember how glad I was when I found you, how it made my life easier to have your support. I knew I could lean on you when I needed to, and you helped me make it through some bad days.

But lately it seems that you've not been as reliable as you once were. When I lean on you, you give way. I can't trust that you'll support me when I need you to.

I'm happy for the good times we've had, and I'll miss you, but I need someone I can be certain will stand up for me when I need it.

So today I've bought a new cane.
