I once read that love could be exploited,
"Used to manipulate"
You can love someone so much,
And give them your entire world
And they could simply never love you back
Then you meet those who see your love,
They don't feel pity.
They view your love as leverage,
Doesn't matter what you say or do,
Their love will never come your way.
That love becomes exploited
The more you love them the more it'll hurt to let go,
To recover.
When he exploits that love,
He knows what to say and do.
He manipulates your mind.
Once sweet words become twisted lies
It seems impossible to hate them,
Impossible to not love,
Impossible to leave.
The day will come,
The day you realize those who exploit your love
Aren't worth it.
They might never change,
The more you love them
The more it'll hurt to leave.
Love isn't a weakness,
I once read that, "living without love at all,
Any kind of love,
Isn't a weakness.
And the worst kind of darkness."
***A/N: I did use a quote from The Red Queen Series, 'Kings Cage', to be exact in case any of you were wondering. I also really recommend that series, don't spoil anything in the comments since I haven't finished reading 'War Storm'. BE SAFE, WASH YOUR HANDS, SOCIAL DISTANCE, and most importantly, take time for yourself loves.
