“I learned the hard way
how it feels to lose someone
who promised you that they
would never leave.
And how it feels to remember
someone who works
their very hardest to forget
about you. There is nothing
worse than falling in love
with someone who hardly
knows how to love themselves.
It’s a feeling that you cannot
rid of by simply forcing
your affections upon the person
who believes that love
is nothing but a lost cause.
So instead of loving someone
who would rather have you
in the back in their mind
than on the inside of their heart,
learn to love someone
who not only puts you before
their self-absorbed fixations,
but who is able to see you
in the same light
that your love has shed
upon their life.”
