don't mistake it for forgiveness, it isn't peace
every lie, every neglect, every choice you made is stripping me away from you bit by bit
and when I am gone when you finally notice the emptiness where I used to stand
you'll realize I didn't slip through your fingers you let me go
He is the architect of his own misery, but he will always blame you. A man who hates himself will punish you for loving him.. a man who canโt look within himself, does not know how to be chosenโฆ he only knows how to be endured.
Staying in something that keeps wounding you isn't strength, and leaving something that won't heal with you isn't failure.. she didnโt walk away to prove a point, she walked away because staying, began to cost her too much.
i have spent too long hating myself.
i will not waste another day at battle with my home.
i've spent so long trying to find someone to love me, i've forgotten how to love myself.
Itโs not love, babe.
That's limerence, the emotional addiction to someone who keeps you chasing the version of them that never stays.
It's survival, your nervous system mistaking anxiety for connection.
You deserve calm.
Not chaos that feels like home
Broken people don't build homes,
they visit them. You're craving consistency from someone who only knows chaos. And the love you keep giving him? That's the love you were never given - trying to heal your old wounds through someone who keeps reopening them.
Don't hold me in your silence and call it love. Don't keep me close just because you're afraid of being alone. My โค๏ธ is not a waiting room for your uncertainty, nor a shelter for your loneliness. I deserve someone who chooses me without hesitation, who stays because they want to.
