Please don’t make me forget

Don't want to forgive you

Want to be mad at you forever

Tired of dealing with the same issue

I know I deserve way better

So, don’t be sweet now and try to make me forget

You know my sweet spot

You are my weakness

Here we go again with the same shit

Just make me forget every time

Now I’m the one saying I’m sorry

For even thinking about leaving

Your toxic love keeps me breathing

You know how to make me forget

Forget you ain't shit

Got me begging for your toxic love

    This is great. Toxic love is just like this too

    ‘Your toxic love keeps me breathing’ Wow Emily, this line stood out to me. It is so painful, and relatable. Makes me think of the attachment that is already built through the short moments of healthy burst of bonding… so we hold onto the healthy moments, and put up with the toxic, waiting for the past to come back to the present. The part where an apology had to be given by the actual victim… gosh, that’s just sick. Sounds like a sick person to have that effect, no accountability to right their wrongs, choosing manipulation as love. I absolutely loved this Emily, it brought out so many thoughts out of me. Well done 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👌🏽♥️🤗

    Oof, this hits hard! That push-pull of toxic love is so real. The raw honesty makes it powerful—like a song you can’t stop replaying. Well done!
