It’s a silly joke, man.

I have all I want and all I need,

but I’m far too broken, with too many demons I feed.

I see your effort,

but it feels like lying.

How can I respect it, if I wasn’t even enough for you to keep trying.

Duality is pain,

nuance is beauty.

Two parts of the same coin, love kills duty.

I believe in you,

never believed in anyone else.

You told me you loved me and left, now I barely trust myself.

I’m used to the pain,

to being broken by those I should be able to rely on.

Yet none hurt so deeply, than the one who swore she’d never be gone.

Now it seems as though,

I’d rather end it than lose it again.

Being with her is the most unsure of myself, I’ve ever been.

How Do I Go On?

“You can’t force love, I realized. It’s there or it isn’t. If it’s not there, you’ve got to be able to admit it. If it is there, you’ve got to do whatever it takes to protect the ones you love.”

— Richelle Mead
