We fear rejection, want attention, crave affection and dream of perfection.

I remember how i was so afarid of getting attached

Then you came along

You showed me that everything i feared could be earsed

I fell for you, only after you stopped loving  me

We use to talk all the time

Now its just a few word convo

I wonder why

I miss the long convos 

The late night good night text messages

But I was dumb for thinking that you meant something

Cause only a fear days later, you told me you were in love with her

My stomach tingles 

Because I know i love you 

But i have to let go

So my wounds, that you closed

Then abruptly opened 

Could close again 

As i return to solitude .
