We All Have That 1

~ In you I saw myself. Maybe that's why we would never work. I'd never be able to love as damaged a soul as my own.

~I was caught up in the possibility of our demons dancing with each other and our sorrows put to an end. But you were caught up in everyone else, not worried about any hearts you might break.

~You temporarily silenced my demons, and that's why it was so hard to get over you- even if you didn't treat me right. Temporary joy was better than constant loneliness and pain.

~We could've made something beautiful from all our dirt. If only you decided I was enough for you, alone.

~I'm sorry we got caught up in each other's way, but I'm not sorry I ever experienced you. You taught me the most valuable lesson I could learn- stop looking for men to reciprocate a love they didn't ask for.

About the Creator

Ze

It took me a long time to realize that I'm not the only traumatized person in this world, and that I could be going through worse. We all have our demons. To truly live we must let go of our ego and learn to control our minds.
