Always giving your love away will leave you drained
emotionally and physically
You can give and give and give
and someone will always take, take, and take some more
You have to find the people worthy of your love,
because your love is one of a kind
Find someone who reciprocates the love you give,
because you can only live through life being drained but for so long

Even the most beautiful flower
Needs to be daily showered with water
For it to grow lovelier
Or else it will wither.
Just like our dreams and aspirations,
We need daily inspirations
For us to keep going
Or else our hearts will stop hoping.

"Always become the one being hurt
Rather than ever hurting another"
Words I have strived to live by
The philosophy left by my mother
I've always tried to live my life
Standing up for what is right
Helping others no matter the cost
Being everyone's shining knight
What a horrible way to live
Even when I was on the verge of breaking
Even when the burden seemed too large
I always took it onto myself
And it was always free of charge
They all need to pay
But lately there is this voice
Echoing from the back of my mind
That is always fighting to take over
It wants to punish the unkind
Maybe I don't want to forgive
Tell me who is that inside me
Those thoughts can't be my own
Even when there's no one around
Somehow I am not alone
Just let me come out and play
I'm trying to keep it at bay
Am I past the point of no return?
I JUST WANT THE VOICE TO GO AWAY
But.... Now....it's my turn

My heart
Is a happy drunk
A little too open
A little too optimistic
It's over in the corner of the bar
Playing poker
Screaming at the top of it's lungs
I'M ALL IN
When it's never
To this day
Had a winning hand
My heart
Is a sad drunk
A little too lonely
A little too caught up in tears
It's over at the counter
Forcing the bartender to take its keys
Because it would rather not go home
Than go home alone again
My heart
Is a reckless drunk
A little too unbalanced
A little too impaired
It's over by the door
Making everyone nervous
A little too good at scaring people away
A little too far gone
Like you
A little too far gone
Turn your head
Shuffle away and pretend you don't notice
The breakdown of a heart
Too drunk on feelings
To know when to stop

It took me forever
To learn how to love myself
So why would I wait On someone
To see if they love me?
I don’t have the patience,
Resources, or energy
The beginning of you
Deciding if you loved me or not
Was the moment I realized
I needed to turn and walk-
No run
The other way
