thought you were smarter than that
but i guess a miserable bird must have been yapping in your ear.
or maybe you’re just as scared as her.
i was good to you
you were not a placeholder.
and that’s all
it’s not my problem now
i don’t want anyone who doesn’t appreciate my love and time.
good luck
and goodbye
20 years ago
we were in love
but then every time i share
speak
express feelings
we would fight about something that dad nothing to do with what was trying to be said. trying to bed heard.
now it’s become so bad
that i don’t talk to you
not the way i used to
what’s the point?
to you, i have no point
it’s yours that matters
this is all feeling really lonely
and i don’t know what to do
but just disconnect from it all
and disappear.
they lie
they act like they care
only to discard you like you’re nothing
and to them you are
-////
no respect
no care
just disposable and ignored
people love to know your traumas
so they can traumatize you again
in the same way
to feel they are in control
that’s not loving
that’s not a good person
that’s evil and mean
and really truly hurtful
how do you trust anyone
when people who act like they care
can switch and show you they never really did
and what they do show you is how little your feelings matter and how easy it is for them to trash you in such a cold and ugly way that they wanted to cause you harm and pain or else they would have handled it with care.
you can’t trust anyone
no one really cares anymore
i truly feel alone
and stupid
for falling for another person
who made me believe they cared
and loved more than they actually do
never again.
my heart hurts
and i feel so alone in this world
i care
i cared
but caring has only brought me pain
I understand.
And I do care.
Be well.
If you need a friend
I’ll be around for a little while.

They play great games
They lie
They criticize
They say things they should never say
They make lead women on
Only to ghost them
And you know what?
That’s not a real man
A real man doesn’t need to feed his eggshell ego
Just to feel good
A real man has awareness
And doesn’t make excuses for why his fucked up behavior is okay
DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE FUCK I’VE BEEN THROUGH?
NO BECAUSE YOU DON’T KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT ME AND SOME THINGS I WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU OVER SOME TIME.
BUT FUCK I HAVE EVERY EXCUSE TO ACT FUCKED UP AND CRUEL
But I don’t
Bevause my love is the real thing
My care is the real thing
Not just stupid words
Spitting out of my mouth
That don’t mean anything
YOUR WORDS HAVE MEANT NOTHING
BEVAUSE OF WHAT YOU SHOW ME
AND I’M BETTER THAN THIS
I’M HURT
BUT I’M BETTER THAN THIS
And I will find someone who is a real man – follows through with what he says – doesn’t play mind games – loves me incredibly – and genuinely cares
I dint have time for your hot and cold bs
So I’m done
You threw away something that could have amazing
And I’m glad you did
Weed out the crap
Make room for the great
I have light in me
Why would I ever give that to you agsin after you treated me the way you do.
Screw you
Grow up
Be aware
And fucking actually care
Don’t say I love you and that you care
Just to act like a stanger you don’t even want to be around anymore.
Lol. Just reading this
Makes me see how screwed up you are
And how shitty you’ve been to me
Emotinally
Mentally
Verbally
And at one time I really really really wanted this with you
Now I just want to forget I ever met you
Bevause all you did was waste my time
You are a sociopath liar
Yuck
i give up
you are good. i truly fell for it.
i’m sorry
please forgive me
thank you
i love you
goodbye
every time i get happy about someone or something
it bites me in the ass
so why even get excited?
i guess that’s something i need to figure out on my own.
we were together
on and off
for awhile.
it’s been 10 years since that first night we went out
which was magical
and I spent 3 days with you
and you wanted me there
and I wanted to be there with you
and I loved the way that felt
and the way you were
but we change.
you were just as fucking crazy as me – if not more-
you let your past fucked up painful relationships dictate how much and how little you gave me.
and I loved you anyways.
hell you pulled a fucking gun on me while I was asleep on your birthday because you were drunk
and I knew that was bullshit and wrong but I loved you so I was willing to deal with your insane crazy bullshit
as long as you were willing to deal with mine.
but now we have grown apart.
you no longer want me
no longer love me
and you know what I’m okay with that.
I still have love for you
but I’m no longer in love with you
because you don’t care and you never will.
I look back at the time we were together and I am happy that I got to share that with you – even as crazy as it fucking was. even with how crazy you are – even with how hot and cold and confusing you made me feel. I have no regrets. because I loved you – and I did try to make it right again – but you didn’t want that with me anymore.
and now I don’t want that with you anymore.
so you don’t have to say that you’re never home and then when I ask why – you as secretive as you have always been – and still are- give me an obvious reply… and I don’t care that you’re with someone else.
I’m happy that you are – if you’re happy then I’m happy.
that’s all I wanted you to be was happy – even if it’s not with me.
I’m getting married tomorrow. –
going to the courthouse first because we can’t wait any longer.
and our wedding ceremony and reception will be at the end of May.
so no hard feelings – you weren’t strong enough to deal with anything more – especially me – anyway. ha but I was strong enough to deal with you.
that’s funny
I guess that’s why I found someone who is strong – doesn’t run away- doesn’t play games- and wants to deal with me ( which makes me so much easier to deal with) and I want to deal with him and everything he throws my way- because it’s not the toxic – angry- half here- mostly there -somewhere else with someone else- confusing hot and cold -abusive avoidant “relationship” (if you could even call it that- when you were never fully in) that we had.
he doesn’t blame me for everything – because he’s man enough to see himself -good and not-so-good, and he works on himself (and I work on myself ) so that we work better together.
it’s easy. when two people really want to be together – they do whatever it takes to make it work.
you were special to me – so I’ve always checked in on you because I don’t stop caring about someone I loved as much as I once loved you…
but I don’t care if you are with someone who makes you happy.
I really want that for you
– just don’t take it for granted – and don’t just give up and run away – the second something goes wrong.
you don’t give up on love –
love is worth it
even if you get hurt
you learn
you heal
you grow
and you love again
some people never have that
I wish you the most wonderful life L.F.M.
thank you and goodbye
you keep doing you
whatever it is you do
i am letting go
of trying
being loved by you
will never happen
and me trying
to make you see
the best side of me
is exhausting
and i’m spent
it’s a waste of time
giving love to someone
who never wanted it from me anyway
and who doesn’t love me
and who will never love me back.
he never really saw me anyways
he didn’t care to
he only needed some validation
because hurt people hurt people.
and i happened to get tangled up in his mess
because he didn’t think about my feelings
he only thought about making himself feel better
and once he knew he could be wanted by someone (me)
he felt good enough to not need me anymore
i want a real man who’s a better person than you have ever shown me
i built you up
and all you did was knock me down
that is who you are
that is who you are
that is
WHO YOU ARE
i accept it now
but don’t expect any validation from me ever again.
