Someone to love me.

Someone to love me. 

 

Isn’t it funny? 

I could show up on your front door step after I’ve gotten done at the gym and find you with someone else. 

You could lie to me when you open the door and say “I don’t know I’m fucked up” 

But I stay because I just want someone to love me. 

You could abuse me with your words and your hands and leave scars. 

But I stay because I just want someone to love me. 

You could ignore me and make me feel like shit even when I’m sitting in the same room. 

But I stay because I just want someone to love me. 

But you knew that. 

All the time I spent putting up with shit just so you’d love me 

But you never did. 

Isn’t it funny?

Very well and succinctly put. Sadly too many people think of love in purely superficial terms and what they can get out of a relationship rather than what they can brinbg to a relationship.

Nice one
