It's such an awful feeling when you know you're setting yourself up for heartache. Like, when its Christmas morning and you're cooking for your entire family. But, the good part lies within you. But its not good. To the person, you keep going back. You know its gluttony. You know that they already have someone else, and you know they know how you feel, too. But whatever they say or do you keep going back and engaging into their actions, their voices, their eyes. Your sense of thought is foggy so it doesn't tame you, yet.
You know it is eventually going to kill you eternally. What lasts forever? That last peak of hope you have been searching forever, is going to leap out of your arms and it will leave you black, heartbroken in tears, on your knees at 2am because you can't breathe in between your sobs. You know it's never going to work, you knew it all along but you still had the strength to take it to your best risk. You may still have silent hopes but they aren't the same. The person has now betrayed you. But you don't get the cue so you fight back. You fight until all your breaths are gone, to fight more. You know it will just kill you inside, so why do you do it?
You can't help yourself. You're literally setting yourself to be let down. Every. Single. Time.
And that, my friend is not a way to live.
-ks.
