nobody told me that to fall in love, i had to fall apart. that i needed to cut away pieces of me until i fit perfectly into your arms. that I had to sand down my rough edges so my hand could fit into yours. nobody told me that to fall in love, i had to lose my favourite parts of me to be yours. that i had to chip away at my passions and desires to make room for yours. i had to follow your dreams, there was no room left for mine. nobody told me that to fall in love i had to become someone i didn't want to be. sacrifice every moment, give it all to you. but what was most important; nobody told me that this wasn't how love was supposed to be.

Nobody told me.

you should have told me that losing myself would hurt more than being alone.
