Weight of Words

From Me, To You

Dear self,
It's okay to take a step back.
It's okay to cry, it's a perfectly normal way to react.

You cannot help, how it is, your heart feels.
It will take some time, but I promise with time, you can heal.

It's not your fault, that you didn't know who he truly was. It's not your fault for falling, it's just what the heart does.

Sometimes people can surprise you.
Sometimes, you think someone is genuine and that can make how you feel, confused.

You are strong enough to walk away.
Erase all the conversations, from when it started up until today.

I know how he awoken your heart from it's slumber, but I'm telling you, to him, that doesn't matter.

He's not a good man and deep down you know that.
He's just like everyone else you met in the past.

Don't talk down your intuition,
you need to hear it and you should listen.

I'm not going to tell you, that after weeks of talking to him everyday, quitting cold won't hurt. But if you continue, you'll end up only hurting worse.

There's a reason he dodged all your feelings.
Lured you in and left you reeling.

I know for once you took a chance and opened up,
but open up your eyes instead, this guys not one who makes the cut.

I know lately, he's been the reason you smile too.
I know he's been your little poetic hidden muse.

Just because he related to you on being hurt, doesn't mean he's a man of integrity and won't leave you in the dirt.

So, you better get over this now and start paying attention. You've been through enough hell and you don't need anymore lessons.
