“You said you loved me less

when I started to doubt myself.


You said you couldn’t always

be there for me even when

I really did need you.


You said you wouldn’t ever

rely on me because you are

the only person that you could

ever truly depend on.


You said that sometimes

I would have to be alone

because not everyone who

has someone will always

be taken care of or looked after.


You said all these things

when all I really wanted to hear

was that no matter how I feel

about myself or how unfairly life

has treated you that you would

always love me.”
