I was always so afraid of your reaction, caught up on how it would end, that it never crossed my mind that if I didn’t say anything that I would have to watch you fall in love with someone else.
I want to let you go. I want to move on. I want to stop thinking about you constantly, but the thought of you clings to me like the smell of your cologne still lingers in the apartment.
You’re just afraid of being loved by someone and getting hurt.
Who I am today is a girl who has to plan a new future for herself not involving you.
You too can take my heart and break it. You too can take every ounce of hope that I have and every ounce of light in this world that I see and turn it into sadness.
It shames me to know that I once cared more about other’s opinions than my own.
You are the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen, heard, kissed, loved… You make life easy.
James Patterson said it best: “What’s worse than knowing you want something, besides knowing you can never have it?”
I wish you could see the way you look right before you kiss me and how at peace you look in those few seconds. I wish you knew how amazing you really are.
Don’t give pieces of yourself, and of your heart, to people who don’t genuinely plan on loving you with every ounce of themselves.
