Have you ever felt like no one listens to what you have to say?
Have you ever felt like you're only ever loved when you walk away?
When you're finally over it, when it's too late
They come confessing undying love, acting like the past wasn’t full of hate
I just want somebody to love me when I'm right there
I’m done being taken for granted, I want someone to care
So damaged, I'm so broken
So paranoid, a lie is what I label every word spoken
I don't even know how to accept the love I deserve anymore
It feels like when you want them less they want you more
I try to put on an act but I get tired
I want to be myself fully and feel desired
I have so much love to give
And I promised myself I wouldn't change my heart as long as I live
I always chose to see the good in people, eyes open wide
But now it’s become impossible to confide
Can't you feel it? I'm terrified, I'm manic
Tell me you love me and I'll feel nothing but panic
Parts of me died, parts I can’t revive
I let their love kill me so that I feel alive

Very nice flow and rhyme scheme, the structure is very nice and complete. 12/10 would recommend the read.
Your means a lot to me. Thank you. 🫶🏼
So real. I’ve had experiences that felt like this a plenty. It does make it super hard to trust, but it also makes you strong. Through that strength you learn to weed out the people who don’t deserve your trust from the ones who do.
I’m really happy when someone can relate to my words. :sparkles: I definitely gained a lot of experience identifying red flags because of the disappointing past, your advice is great.
