Unraveling Love

It seems I have a thing for choosing those who channel James Dean,

Quirky versions that are not what they first seem.

This time, I'll learn, avoiding scenes and strife,

I just want things peaceful, a drama-free life.

Your emotional IQ might need some tending,

Walking on eggshells, not my usual mending.

Expressing myself, I fear misunderstanding,

Returning your wedding ring, it's a gentle parting.

We didn't quite sync, not a perfect match,

Maybe in another life, where love's an easy catch.

It feels like you hate me, though I'm a catch too,

Strange, right? Building a shrine, so devoted to you.

I placed you on a pedestal, higher than the sky,

I don't know why I did that, oh my, oh my.

I won't forget how you changed for her, not fair,

Still holding our wedding ring, it's a heavy affair.

Your love had conditions, always your way,

I changed to keep you, a strange price to pay.

But I realized I lost a part of me,

Even though I adapted, it wasn't meant to be.

Returning your ring, no hard feelings, no attack,

I deserve to be loved for who I am, no need to backtrack.

I’m packing up, it's time to part ways,

Our connection was rare, but now it's just a phase.

You opened Pandora's box, bringing in some strain,

Unaware of the impact, causing emotional rain.

It's tough, what happened, but life's not always fair,

For the pain you caused, there's no need to despair.
