you must not beg for love
maclau
it is known. it is true. it’s in songs and human logic. you must not beg for love. you must not beg to be loved by anyone.
i guess because love is something you just feel or don’t.
i used to believe that also love is earned and grown like a plant. is something you take care of like a baby.
but it is also true that love doesn’t exist.
what i feel about you, i think is love, but if it doesn’t exist… then what is it?
weakness of my personality? I’m just too obsessed with you?
i have no idea. but whatever i feel inside, burns me, hurts me, fills me with joy and sadness.
i burn by a simple touch of your hand. it’s just your finger caressing my hand, but i feel like all the strength is taken away from my body. like i could die just from that touch. i feel like that simple action, that finger is touching me everywhere at the same time. it’s overwhelming.
it hurts when i look into your eyes and i don’t see my feelings reflected back. i hurts when i come down to earth and remember you don’t love me. you care like a good friend. but in your lack of experience and lack of whatever, you are just what you can do with little effort, but that’s all.
it fills me with joy when i see when you’re trying hard to be nice, to be there for me, when you try to take care of me. when you put me names and laugh at my stupid jokes. but at the same time it makes me sad, because you shouldn’t try so hard, it must be something that comes from the heart, but in your case it doesn’t. it’s sad to realize that you do what any good friend does, and that’s all.
i imagine a thousand of happy endings for this thing that we have –or not-… but that’s exactly the point. “there’s nothing here”. nothing happen between us. we’re just friends and that’s all.
i shouldn’t beg for love, but I’ve worked hard for it. and i failed. i did everything i could to earn your love, and all i got was your friendship. friendship i already had.
and I’m left empty. i gave what i could with the strength i had. it wasn’t my fullest because i still don’t give my fullest if I’m not loved back and for a long time. but i did a lot. A WHOLE FRAKING LOT. and it was worthless. I’m empty. I’ve poured all my being into this.
and i feel like i could still do so much more, but my brain is doing me the favor to make me stop and not make me destroy myself for this.
you don’t love me. you care. that’s sweet. but I’m not enough and your feeling is not enough. we’ll be friends forever. but right now i need to stay away from you to forget this feeling of love or whatever it is. then we’ll be back as the pretty cool friends we are.
so here i am. trying to look everything from the outside. trying to look at you with the same eyes everyone else does. trying to see the obvious and the superficial. you’re just a kid living in it’s own world, with his own preoccupations.
I’m a woman. with my own problems in the head. we’re not good to each other.
you pity me. you feel basic friendship care. but mostly, you don’t know what to do about me.
you pretend to be sad about what’s happening right now. but you actually feel relieved. that you don’t have to work so hard anymore and care so much about me because I’m taking a distance.
you soon enough are gonna be taking care of your own problems, and quickly forgetting that this ever happened. a very few times you’ll remember me and maybe miss my “selfless” acts for you, but you’ll quickly get over it because it never felt like something you need, but more like a commitment you never wanted to engage.
goodbye my love, my heart is broken, but my brain is trying to save me from this pain, so I’m taking the chance.
over and sadly out.
