Love

Breaking free
But it's only after some time that I realise I was just running away
I can't avoid my problems forever
They keep coming back and with added problems
From 2 to 10
All because I decided to walk away-
Will you pretend
Pretend you don't care and that it doesn't hurt
I can see your pain
I can still see the love you have for me
So why
Why do you cause us both so much pain
Why are you allowing the time we could be spending happily to turn into a nightmare
Just stop pretending-
Be kinder
Be softer
Be loving
Don't let me fall as much
Don't push me so hard
Give me a chance to grow without the soul breaking pain
Just please
Be kinder
Be softer
Be loving-
Rule the world
I just want to be happy
I want to enjoy myself so much I forget that I've ever had problems
I just want happiness
Is that too much to ask for-
I'm selfish or lonely
I know and love myself enough to be alone and I do not need social validation-
Sometimes all you need to do is take a deep breath
Get up
Then continue-
I've had to learn the hard way.
That's it's not how hard it felt when I fell. But it's about how fast I get up after falling down.
Wait maybe that's not it. Maybe it doesn't matter how long it takes me to get up. What matters is that I get up.
Progress is progress no matter how slow it may seem.
We are all headed in different directions so why should we be expected to travel at the same speed.
