"I didn't let you walk away because I……" — Shawn Davis

"I didn't let you walk away because I didn't love you, I let you walk away because I do. My presence in your life brought you pain. The worrying, staying up late. I rather see you happy without me, then knowing that, your sad with me. That's the true measure of love, willing to sacrifice my happiness for yours. Willing to be absence from your life, so someone else can give you the love you deserve and need."

— Shawn Davis
