I’m sorry I couldn’t be the love you were to me

by Maxine_

I hope one day you wake up and realise that success doesn’t last long. That coming home to the sound of your kids laughter is more important that the pretty girls replying to your posts. I hope your realise that all that fame won’t make people remember your name. I can’t expect you to understand the love I had for you. But I now know that it wasn’t the same as what you had for me. I didn’t deserve that treatment from my one and only. Here I was thinking you were dreaming of the ring you’d buy me. But you were only dreaming of your friend instead of me. Your fantasies had nothing to do with me. All I asked for was us to be a reality. We loved on different levels and I’ve realised I can’t make us both happy no matter how much I drain myself. I can’t give you all of me because you take it and leave. You have no idea how much I really loved you because you haven’t met that kind of love yet. I don’t know if you ever will. I’m sorry I couldn’t be the love that you were to me. Because while I was in love it was ever so sweet.
