I Was Never Broken

by Sara Sheehan

There’s no warning, but when I asked to fall in love, God gave me you.

We’ve all been with someone terrible, someone not for us, no matter how bad we wanted them to be.

The best part of being with that terrible person is how amazing it feels when someone good comes along and makes you feel the love you’ve always been craving. To think you were in love then until they show you the meaning of love.

I couldn’t love myself enough to see right through you.

I know I might not be with the one I love now or the ones I had a thing for in the past. Whatever’s meant for me will happen. There are some things I can’t change, some things I regret never doing.

Always show your heart openly, You may get hurt no matter what you choose. You can say you gave your all. In the end, that’s what matters.

Accept that happiness relies on yourself, not based on someone else. The key to true happiness is believing in yourself.

I’ve been mistaken as a fool, but only for you.

Love hurts because the ones I saw potential in are too damaged to give me a chance. How do you show someone you should be theirs? Do you let them go down a road you know is wrong?

You either be happy or watch yourself fall; there’s not much I can do but be the best friend I can be to you.

I want to help you understand not everyone is out to hurt you. You have me, and I’m only trying to love you. If you give me a chance, I promise that your trust, your secrets, and all your dreams. Lastly, your heart will be safe with me.

It’s always the same story, same ending, I’m immune to it. I know nothing different, but I try hard to find something different, how can I? When I only want you.

That’s when I learned when someone makes a promise, they make it for the moment and break it when they find something better.

IT’S LIKE A GAME WITH YOU, AND I ALWAYS LOSE

You’re the best thing I have, Praying to God, we’ll always make sense.

I promise, To never get us confused. I’ll always love you. There’s nothing I fear more Then losing you… So please, Don’t go.

I ask God, why such a test… why me? Is this what I’m made for? Getting broken? Losing people? I’m an emotional mess… I’m alone in this.

I TELL MYSELF I’M NEVER GOOD ENOUGH, OR I’M JUST TOO MUCH

It’s either you’re not good enough, or they’re to blame. Love is pain, and pain is love. I hate love… I hate pain. I feel like I’m going insane. You will never know the meaning of us, trust and know, it’s because I’ll never be enough.

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

There’s no shame in my love, no shame in my heart for the ones I lost. I have no shame for those who left me to pick up the pieces. Each piece led me to where I am today. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me find myself. But do me a favor, stay away from me.

If the love can’t be reciprocated, The love isn’t there at all.

“I love you; I just can’t stay”

I thought loving and caring for someone unconditionally was required; I didn’t realize it was a way to be taken for granted.

I believe happiness is within; if you can’t find it within yourself, you’ll never find it within anyone else.

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.

Healing from the times, I gave you more than I gave myself.

Recovering from the pain of loving you until my heart was almost broken.

Be you; if they can’t love you, they don’t deserve to.

They made you forget about yourself while trying to love them with everything you had while not giving yourself the love you deserved all along.

thinking about what the outcome could be. But I know

IN CASE YOU FORGOT: You deserve to love yourself with the same kind of love, you give to everyone else.

Stop allowing toxic people To fill you with poison And calling it “love”

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

Confused about why I’m not as happy as I should be.

If I like you,

You’ll know. I don’t vibe with everyone. It’s hard for me to make friends. I’m so distant. If I enjoy your company, or just you in general… you mean something; not everyone gets that side of me.

Stop letting people hang around you, Because you “love” them… If the love isn’t reciprocated, It’s not worth your love. Don’t use love as an excuse to keep someone around, that will never fit or make sense.

I just pray that one day The ones who hate me for letting them go can find the love within themselves, The love I found in them, The same love they decided to give everyone but themselves. The love they always needed. Because I, couldn’t give them that.

I cared too much about trying to save the ones I loved from themselves. I was helping them find them; I slowly lost myself.

I know I’m blessed… I’m aware I won’t always be happy nor will I always be down.

But always remember, not everyone will love you back… you’re not for everyone, and only you can understand that.

always know there’s a reason you chose to love people who didn’t love you back.

I wanted to give you the kind of love you deserved because you’ve been hurt for so long. I wanted to be the one who picked up the pieces. I wanted you to love me. Maybe that’s where I went wrong.

we put out all into someone else in hopes to fill the void we long to find in ourselves.

I’ve lost every trace of happiness within myself. I’m trying to find the way back to me… but she’s lost, I can’t find her.
