Sometimes I still cry
When it gets dark,
When I’m alone,
When I hear a song you used to listen to
But not because I miss you.
Not because I love you still..
Because of what you did to me.
Of how you made me feel and then ripped it all away.
Everything I thought of love just burned in front of me and shown to be nothing but lies
I cry because I feel foolish
I cry because you’ll never have to feel this way…
And I wish you could.
“You expect a lot because you are willing to do that for others. Darling, that isn’t how everyone is. Don’t live your life thinking that people will be good to you because you’re good to them. Don’t think that they’ll jump from the bridge for you because you’ll do that without a second thought. Don’t think that makes you overbearing. Don’t hate that about yourself. We’re fathomless. We feel empty but we still keep on giving and giving. Never lose the will to give love. No matter how much unkindness you suffer. Don’t become them. The moment you reciprocate their hatred with hatred, it’s over, you’re one of them. Breathe, breathe in all the rage, all the hurt and breathe it out. Let it go. It’s okay.”
