When two people alike collide,
ego often builds a wall.
One chooses to bendβ€”
not from weakness,
but because the bond means more than pride.

True love forgives,
it overlooks mistakes in silence.
But when respect is crushed again and again,
even the deepest heart grows empty.

And thenβ€”
the one who once bowed in love
walks away without a word.

Only later comes the bitter truth:
in the arrogance of pride,
a rare and precious love was lostβ€”
a love meant only for you.
✨ Message: Pride can break what love could have saved. Respect keeps love alive.
