On the other side of the Ocean

she is still stuck in the past

By Cherry Published about a year ago 1 min read

These double standards of yours are killing me.

Why she is the innocent one in your eye,

Why am I the arrogant one? I am selfish.

My soul is tearing apart.

All I wanted was some of your love, not all of it. I know you are a man with your own world.

I just wanted to be a tiny part of it, is it too much to ask?

I am the one standing on the wrong side.

I am near the edge of the abyss.

I wish someone could come and save me from all of it.

All of this misery is just because I wanted to be loved, but in return, I got your hurtful words. That cut me deep into my flesh, deeper than a knife.

Will there be a time when I would be loved back?
