I gave my all to a person even with an exhausted soul. Time after time, I made myself an afterthought for the sake of his heart. Unfortunate events proved that he did not have the heart to do the same.  I freely gave myself to a man that confused true love with lust. My selflessness entwined with his selfishness, and my love slowly became suppressed from being mistreated. With this, I know the importance of giving less love to a loveless being. They are not aware of what they have when their pride is what they live for.

Day 5: Loveless
I gave my all to a person even with an exhausted soul. Time after time, I made myself an afterthought for the sake of his heart. Unfortunate events proved that he did not have the heart to do the same.  I freely gave myself to a man that confused true love with lust. My selflessness entwined with his selfishness, and my love slowly became suppressed from being mistreated. With this, I know the importance of giving less love to a loveless being. They are not aware of what they have when their pride is what they live for.
