You love someone,
So much,
So that,
When they hurt you,
Even then you just forgive.
But mostly,
We hurt ourselves,
We make mistakes,
And keep looking at ourselves,
Through tinted glasses
Of the failures.
We never forgive ourselves
Like we forgive the ones we love.
When we don't love ourselves enough,
Should we really expect to be loved.
We cry in sorrows
And dig deep in questions,
Of why people leave us or
Don't value us enough.
It is just because,
We show to the world,
That we don't deserve love,
So, We don't get any.
