With all great opportunities comes risk
You push her away
And one day
She will not come back
When you are faced with a decision that determines someone staying or walking away
I hope you make the right one
I saw a man who resembled you today
Maybe it was his eyes
Maybe it was the way he spoke
All it took was a moment before the thought of you came flooding in
The memories of us were like high waves crashing into me
I could not fight you off
I could not fight you off
I try filling the void with anything I can get my hands on
Still do
But nothing compares to you
I will love you until the day I die but I will never take you back as long as I live
Our society praises uniqueness
While those of us who possess a difference from the norm
Feel extremely alone
I stare at myself in the mirror
Loathing my own flesh
Then I remember what my mother said
To tell myself that I love myself
So I say it until tears run down my face
My eyes blood shot red
My mouth dry from a repetition of words
For once I believe it
For once my eating disorder is silenced
For once I take my mother’s advice and choose to love myself
I am a prisoner to my own mind
Help me rid these somber thoughts
So that I may be set free eternally
To allow a past lover to affect your current relationship is a crime itself. Do not let past circumstances dictate your future with another.
