#under waves

Stop expecting things and you'll be happy. Assume you're alone.

Being who she was she never loved, she could not love. She only claimed what was hers. People often got that confused.

I just can't help doing things with you in mind.

I was the only one that knew how to handle you. You and I both know that. But that was the dangerous thing, love. You yourself didn’t even know how to handle you. You expected me to carry the weight of us both. You expected to scream and cry and throw your words at me like I was a dart board and that I would be there to put your pieces back into order. And you know me, you knew I would. And you knew I would get them right every time. But love.. you broke and broke so many times that your pieces became sharp. And that’s the thing, love.. My hands are cut and bleeding and it’s beginning that I can barely carry myself anymore, let alone you. Love.. I’m letting us go. I hope that makes enough sense.

Please do not forget I am human. Do not forget that my heart is fragile. Do not forget that there is love burning at its casing. Do not forget that I am loyal and I am trusting. Do not forget that my skin can graze, and that my heart can break. Do not forget that I loved you, and do not forget the way I cried when you left - and when she came into your life instead. Do not forget that I gave you everything I had inside of me.. Do not forget that while you may see a girl smiling at you, she may be struggling for air on the inside. Do not forget that I can feel heartbreak. And do not forget that it may eat me alive. Please, the next time you talk to me - do not forget that I am human.
