Text to a potential lover

Steve - Hey

 

Steve - Hey

 

Steve - Hey how are you doing?

 

Steve - Hey I’m just trying to get to know you.

 

Steve - Wow so it’s like that?

 

Steve - You won’t even give me a chance?

 

Steve - I know you see the Facebook messages.

                            

Anna - Hey sorry I don’t feel like talking. You are not worth my time or attention.

 

Steve - I’m good now.

 

Steve - I found me another lover.

 

Steve - All I wanted was your time and your attention, but you placed my heart in an emotional detention.

 

Steve - To me now you just another potential lover I could of loved and cared for. But you loved your ego more.

 

Anna - I’m sorry.

 

Anna - At the time you wanted me I was busy.

 

Anna - I want you now though, even though you have another lover, I envy her. Your persistence showed me you were worth my time. But my ignorance encouraged me to ignore my heart and feed my ego.

 

Anna -  Now it’s sad to watch you go.                                                  

 

Anna - I wish I knew better and did better. Now loneliness comforts my ugly mess.

 

Steve - I guess this is goodbye, because with persistence I also come with, love, patients and loyalty. I am glad I never gave you the best of me.

 

Steve - My lover truly deserves all of me. My time and my energy, my flaws and insecurities. Thank you for letting me find the best of me.

 

Steve - You were the light that had to shine in me for me to find the best of me. Your rejection brought out a better version of me.

 

Steve - Love stings like a blind bee it can kiss anyone and make them feel it slowly. For those it never kisses their hearts forever remain lonely.
