Love Is Painful

Sometimes your heart needs more time to accept what your mind already knows. 
Your mind knows exactly what’s happening, but your heart is ignoring it. 

Sometimes you can love somebody with all of your heart and at the same time, not want them back. 

You continue to love them, despite everything that’s happened and the pain they’ve caused you, but you realize that even if you did want them back, nothing would ever be the same again. 

You’ve been hurt so many times now that you’d rather break your own heart by missing them instead of giving them the opportunity to do it again. 

You had me at a point where I would’ve left the entire world behind for you. 
In a way, I kind of did. 
But, that just wasn’t enough for you. 
Nothing was ever enough. 

You broke down my walls, but then broke me as well. 
And, that was so easy for you to do. 

I’ve tried to hate you, but I just can’t do it. But, loving you hurts me more than hating you. 
You’re going to be in my life still, and that makes everything just that much harder. 
I’m not even sure what hurts worse - the shock of what happened or the pain of what never will. 

But, you know you really love someone when you can’t hate them for breaking your heart. 
I blame myself more than I blame you, and that just really doesn’t make any sense. 
I gave you my everything and did all that I could do to keep you. 

So, after me saying all of this.... would I really not take you back? 
I don’t even know. 
I love you so much that it is painful. 
But you are worth the pain in a weird way. 


I would give anything for the chance to have you love me again.
