he makes you feel special,
like you are the only one,
until you realize,
that it was the biggest lie.
he promises to heal,
he promises to patch up all your wounds,
he promises to pick you back up,
and cradle you in his loving arms.
then,
he is gone.
a distant memory,
an old friend.
so what to do? what to do?
cry yourself to sleep,
smash a plate onto the ground.
pretend that you don't care.
your mind says,
leave him
block him out
forget
you convince yourself finally,
that you don't need him,
that you are okay on your own,
that he meant nothing.
and he's back,
wrapping his arms around you,
promising, promising, promising
and you believe every word
and when he leaves again,
leaving you crying,
****** knees,
and an aching heart.
call yourself a fool,
cry for a moment,
and get back up,
all on your own.
be stronger than the person he made you,
show him that things will indeed be okay without him.
you are tough.
you are strong.
