"you know why i dated people like your father?"

"why?"

"because they make you believe them that they love you."

missus, you told your daughter it was ok to have a broken heart..

to live a life not worth living for love.

you told her

that people sacrifices themselves for brainwashing

to live a life full of lies

because they don't like to live with truths.

because it is like living in a fantasy where everything doesn't actually exist.

you told her to give up love

because it is something we will never get.

because to love a non-lover is something we could only really get in this life full of shit.
