They say you’ll never truly know how damaged a person is until you try to love them. I never knew how damaged I was until I started loving myself.

I miss life before I met you,
Back when I had given up on love.
I miss life before our first kiss,
Back when I didn’t know it was possible to stop time.
I miss life before you gave me hope,
Back when I didn’t have a reason to smile.
I miss life before you disregarded my feelings,
Back when I had none.
I miss life before you started loving me,
Back when I use to love myself.
