Do people really wanna know you? Or do they just like the idea of you? Do they even know your flaws, your trials and tribulations. Do they care to know. If they did know, would they push it to the side.. how would they comfort you when they don’t you know. Who will bring you solace in your times of real need, when you ache, when you cry. I hope you’re wise and only allow those in with good intentions. I hope no one ever gets to say they got the best of you...how could they when they don’t even know the best of you? Is it wrong to say I hope they fail and then seek retribution on themselves. I hope when you experience pain nothing but growth and lessons learned follow. I hope you know that it was never a failure. It was then who failed you...failed to see your worth. If they would have saw their own demise would they have went about it differently. Or was it worth it to them to have a small piece of you and steal some of your time. Growing up we always hear about the monsters in our closet, under our bed, and the monsters that live in the dark. What about the ones that lurk during the day preying on you. What about the monsters that presents themselves as a savior. How will you know the difference. It almost instills a certain fear that you have to live in and be so cautious of. I have had so many women claim to love me but they didn’t know the real me...what I do behind closed doors, what thoughts really passed through my mind. They just loved the idea of me an what their preconception of me was. These people are everywhere...they are your day to day people that come around just as much as the air you breath. So please be careful, your heart is already physically fragile. Please don’t let these commonalities fool you. But if no one has told you today then I’ll be the first one to let you know I idolize the resiliency you have and how true to yourself you continue to be...they’re both unwavering qualities I adore. I envy you and these “special abilities” you have. It’s rare and undefinable...& once again I’m attracted to anything I can’t define. Despite that I will respect the friendship to be but a definite thank you is always in order for any of this inspiration. So thank you for taking care of your soul and hanging it out for others to see that they can make it just as you have.
