Chaos Born From Love

How It Has Ended

By Mercedes ChavezPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

I lost myself in you

I wanted to be perfect

The perfect wife

The perfect partner

I wanted to be everything you needed and more

You lived for me

You placed me on a pedestal

Even when I asked you not to

I never wanted you to get lost in loving me

I never wanted to be the reason behind any pain you felt

How could something so beautiful cause so much destruction?

We loved each other more than we loved ourselves

And in the end...

We destroyed each other

Far beyond recognition

I don't recognize the man who chose to hurt me

You don't recognize the woman who betrayed you

Looking into each other's eyes now

All that is left behind our tears

The remains of who we used to be

A love once beautiful

Now, it has turned into chaos
