Not Good Enough For You.

by raeven-leigh-winter

I Tried! And Tried! I tried my best for you to show you that … I loved you. It wasn't good enough. My heart wrote you poems for you. My heart wrote poems about you. It wasn’t good enough. It wasn’t love at first site. But I loved you at your darkest. The darkness came over you, but I never left you. You will never know that I would come home and cry in the corner of the room, because of you. Because of you! I lost my smile. Because of you! I lost my temper with friends as I would stick up for you. Because of you! I overthought. Because of you! Because of you! Because of fucking you! Maybe you didn’t mean to rip out the veins of my heart. And yeah maybe you didn’t mean to call out the green eyed monster which sleeps inside of me. You said you wanted to be with me, so why was you in such a rush to give me away. I AM NOT A CHARITY CASE! I AM A HUMAN BEING WITH FEELINGS SO PLEASE TREAT ME LIKE ONE! I can’t get mad at you because this is life. Life will bring you up to the highest of heights and drop you. Yes! I will always love you. But I’ll never forget the pain I was suffering in silence. I’ll never forget the worthless feeling I would get. I’ll never forget how I felt so unappreciated. But now it’s time for me to find someone that will appreciate all the things I do for them. Someone that will laugh at all my jokes, even if their cheesy. We will look at each other with a smile and tell ourselves “how did we get like this?” Yeah. I saw a future with you, it was so clear…. But clearly to you that was just a blur.
