There are times
you already know the answer
you are just not ready to accept it yet.

And some things you have to stop
searching for.... why?? At some point
you have to leave it alone.

I forgave you for myself.
Not for you obviously,
You were too selfish for me at a point.
Tho when you broke my heart,
I decided to be selfish too.
But selfish in the way I stopped making everything about you.

I've become so damaged that when someone wants to give to me what I deserve,
I had no idea how to respond.
When you are wounded, sometimes it's best to retreat and heal,
Never stay hidden for too long, because all wounds need air.

That's what happens when your heart breaks,
You tell yourself no one will ever be allowed inside again.
Then someone comes along with light in their eyes,
Suddenly your heart goes to war with your MIND.
I was being who you wanted to
see not who I wanted to be.

You will always be a lot of things.
Not everyone is going to like you or understand you.
And in the times it feels like you are in a court room,
Try to treat others with good intentions,
Even the ones that don't deserve it.
Be you, even when it's hard.
You will spend the rest of your life
with yourself,
Become comfortable with who you are.

We often think more about what scares us than what excites us, and this holds us back.
Nobody is coming to save you, so save yourself.
Ask yourself, are you in love with the person or are you in love with the feeling?
