giving up

Why do you love me?

In the past she questioned on their first meeting..

What makes you so sure that you want to spend the rest of your life with me?

What makes you believe you're truly in love with me?

What makes you think you won't betray me?

What makes you think I won't cheat on you or wake up one day and realize I don't love you anymore?

What makes you think I'm the right girl for you?

Because I know… I know you were alone for a long time before you met her.

And that's what she keeps wondering,why her?

Maybe because she was the most insecure girl in the room.

An easy target.

Like a deflated balloon, desperate for air.

But you,

You never gave her oxygen.

You gave her poison instead.

And the worst part? She took too long to realize it.

She was already losing air before she found out that what you filled her with was never meant to save her.

It was meant to break her.

They said "Never trust a man too much, my lady"…

But I will not let this be my ending.

I will find a man who truly wants my love,

A man who sees me, not as something to fix, but as something to cherish.

A man who will fight for my trust and hold it with both hands.

A man who will know the worth of the love I have to give.

And you, yes you reading this....

Are you giving up already?

Because of your past? Because of your regrets?

I'm not giving up.

Not on love. Not on myself.

So tell me, will you?
