The pain has consumed every inch of my vessel and I no longer know who I am or if I’ll be able to survive without it.

I am letting you go because I have abandoned myself by loving you more than I should have; I forgot to spare even an ounce of love for myself.

If you cannot love me as I am, you don’t deserve me.

Do not pull me in any closer
Because people like me
Love too deeply

Save me the pain and heartache if you don’t have the space to hold my love.

As much as I wanted to be a home for you, you only saw me as a shelter.

I am beginning to understand that loving you was more painful than leaving you.

Those three little words never meant anything to you, yet you let them slip off your tongue effortlessly.

You tell me you miss me, but your actions never match your words.
