Let Go

If he tells you he loves you but doesn't ever prove it, let him go. If he pushes you down more than he picks you up, let him go. If he doesn't make you smile like he did the first time you saw him, let him go. If he's the reason why your pillow is soaked with tears every night, let him go. If he ever threatens to leave you because he doesn't get his way, let him go. If he's cracking your heart a little more everyday, let him go. If he makes her smile while you're sitting alone crying, let him go. If he makes you hate yourself, let him go. If he tries to change you, let him go. If he forces you into things you don't want, let him go. If he's the reason for the empty feeling in your chest, let him go. If he leaves and comes back whenever he pleases, let him go. If you've given him more than one chance and he fucks up again, let him go. Letting go is one of the hardest things to do, but sometimes there's nothing else you can do. Yeah, I know you love him. You're more important, though. I promise that you will be okay without him. Don't let him drag you down no matter how much you love him because I guarantee he doesn't love you as much as he claims to.                                B.S.
