Lately I've been conflicted
By all that my surroundings inflicted.

I've realized that moving on is much more of an obstacle than just a step forward.

I sometimes find it difficult to understand why love is so soul wrenching, but then again when one is in love, you tend to give your significant other EVERYTHING that it truly you.

It is always said that you don't know what you have until you lose it, but I think we all know exactly what we have when we have it, we just didn't think we'd lose it.

You and your ex never really lose feelings for each other, you two just realised that what you had wouldn't last when life got a bit rocky and the tar road was no where to be found.

So you see, the standards of love are too high to maintain, that's why love breaks us all, emotionally, mentally & even sometimes physically.

love is caring.
love is sacrifice.
love is happiness.
love is pain.
Love has no wrong or right.
