A Word We Want When It’s Gone

Mon, 07/19/2021 - 23:13 -- mIeNlFP

Why is it we have desperation and reliability on one person we want when we can’t have?

The worst feeling that won’t go away until they say yes, and deepens when they go away.

I had felt it when I lost it and many can’t describe it but we all went through it.

I wanted to go back and fix all the mistakes that revealed themselves when it was already over.

I became surprised as an unforgiving person to see all their flaws turn into beauty.

It's sad to see you see me turn my tears into a river and your rejection stung me harder than a knife, but what can you do.

Yes, you want the one back only when were broken it’s toxic but we still want it.

I still can’t get over it but I made a promise to.

We don’t have to like them just realize you love them until you lose them.

Love is a word we want when it’s gone.
