Love is a game we like to play, not always sincere with the words we say. We dance with another drawing each other in like cat and mouse we run away again. I love you, you love me so anxious to achieve! But once youβre there do you believe? The words you are saying, the words you hear coming from an immature heart to a deaf ear. The thrill of the chase of all thats new. When it settles into routine leaves you seeking something true. You begin to push and they to pull longing for that feeling a love so full. You yearn and you burn When it begins but then find yourself tossing and turning as it ends. You wake up one day, feeling scarred and broken, a little bled out from wounds that are open. You begin to heal, to focus on you, determined to find things that are true. Sick of the games you no longer wish to play. Only focusing on you and the ones who stay. Who bring compassion and peace, who promote safety and joy. Not dallying with those who treat your heart like baggage or a toy. No longer seeking a love that burns. You have the scars you want one that stands firm. Where you support each other as you grow. The pace of it steady and slow.
