She forgot how to love herself and gave her heart to someone
who didn’t know commitment is the best for amnesia.
We label these moments as failed attempts,
but forget effort is what keeps us alive.

Trying is what separates the passionate..

Whatever ¨love¨ is,
or what you may believe it to be,
give it freely.
Never attach value to gold
because once you place a price
worth is lost.

If her absence does not shift the weight of your insides,
you will never deserve her presence for realignments
or her honesty for reassurance.
