I Was Never Broken

by Sara Sheehan

Welcome to my heart, the place nothing makes sense yet never seems to be wrong.

I’m at war with my own heart,

I can’t stay in the dark forever because I’m only hurting myself,

To give my all to watch myself fall scares me every time.

I refuse to sit back and watch ...

Someone who loves you for everything you are and everything you can be.

I don’t have it in me, to do people how they do me. I’m still trying to understand, If it’s my biggest strength or my biggest weakness.

I don’t care if I lose in the situation, as long as I don’t lose myself in the situation.

So many people look for reasons to stay rather than reasons to go.

I’ll always carry the weight on my heart of all the times I was ignored, unappreciated, and left torn apart. I can’t begin to understand why I made myself put up with someone so cold while I had a heart of gold.

I was in love with loving you.

I see the signs now, the signs I should have ran when I had the chance. The times I always gave in when I should have left. I put my heart out there to get destroyed, and you chose to destroy me every time.

My heart was confused.

I suffered so long trying to end my journey with you; it was a blessing to let you go.

you chose yourself when I should have chosen myself.

Maybe it’s anger I hold inside of me towards you. Because… I couldn’t love myself enough to see right through you.

The regrets I have are the things I didn’t do when I had the chance to. The things I wish I did, the things I wish I would have said. I always think before I speak, so I always regret half of what I don’t do because my head always tells me not to.

make sure the next time you speak about me, it’s true.

Trust is the most significant part of every relationship. You can’t have a connection without it. These days, you can’t trust anyone, which is why I’m my best friend.

Life’s never what you ask for… It’s what you make of it.

I usually call them like I see them, Too bad I was blind when it came to you.

The key to true happiness is believing in yourself.

Loving yourself is the most crucial part of living. Change should also mean maturity. True happiness is the key to it all. You either be happy or watch yourself fall;

How do you find better when you’ve had the best?

I let go of people I wanted to keep around forever. To me, that’s become my biggest strength. If you know me, you know my heart’s big and my love is unconditional. If I let you go, It was for reasons that don’t need explanation, other than it wasn’t me, It was you.

Toxic people are dangerous. You’ll love them with all your heart. Without knowing, your heart is breaking because of them.

Love is not pain; love is beautiful. Love is supposed to be something that creates happiness, not something that destroys it.

There’s no halfway when it comes to love; you’re either in or never were.

No one seems to understand how much I love or how hard my heart beats. It’s time for me to take a break from loving, I think it’s my turn to be loved.

My heart’s big, but not big enough to deal with people who decide to love me when it’s convenient for them.

I don’t know what breaks my heart more, the fact that he never loved me or that I still do. I will always have the scar on my heart of being in love with someone who never loved me back.

If I told you that you were everything, I ever wanted… could I have you?

I always loved you, even when things faded… I loved you through the fog. I still do.

It took all of me to come to terms with letting you go, a part of me still hasn’t. I probably won’t ever let you go completely.

You gave me so much insight into what loving someone so much felt like. I chose to remember you as the best friend I loved for so long, not the piece I outgrew. You’ll always be special to me; I hope you know that.

I haven’t felt the vibe of being happy.

IF I COULD HAVE ANYTHING, IT WOULD BE YOU. I PUT THAT ON EVERYTHING, IT’S TRUE.

Let me tell you something about people with good hearts. We love intensely, sometimes it’s hard to accept not everyone can love us with the same love, reciprocated back to us. The wild part… no matter how many times the pain is repeated, our hearts never change.

I could care less what someone thinks of me, there’s no heart like mine.

someone who’s soft but not easily open; that’s why I was drawn to you.

It’s not your fault not everyone is awake.

It’s not your job to wake up anyone sleeping on you.

I loved you with my whole heart… not just a piece.

Regardless of the time that passed, you will never forget how my love felt.

I feel like my whole world is crashing down within minutes. I can’t even remember how I felt when it wasn’t falling apart because I’m so blinded by the bad…

I don’t crave another presence at this moment; I crave peace of mind. I crave finding my balance… finding my way.

I’m still a work in progress
