I f***ing love being single
Until you,
I had forgotten the painful, razor-edged wings
Of the butterflies in my stomach
I had forgotten the suffocating grind
Of love’s mill on my mind
I had forgotten
How love consumes your brain
Pushing out any thought that didn’t concern you
Love is selfish
It demands your attention
It demands every bit of your energy
Until you have nothing left
And you realize
It wasn’t worth it
None of that was worth it
And you realize
That you are worth it
That you are worth every bit of energy you spent on him
Redirect it towards yourself!
Remember why you are who you are
And embrace it
Every thought, every morsel of energy, every word spoken
Is for you, from you
A pure and unadulterated cycle
Alien infatuation will no longer corrupt my mind and heart
I am free
