To the one I love.
"I love you sincerely, from deep within me I care too much for you my love.. I can't even tell you because I am afraid I will come off too strong.. I am afraid of being too fast that I fall out of it so quickly. I am scared that these feelings will die the moment I say go" - Angel Desmond.
I am a writer after all, and I write to express how I feel most of the time. I wrote this poem to someone I have great affections for, affections that were not returned. Believe me it hurts, it truly does, to have feelings for someone and not have them reciprocated. I didn't know how much it would. I knew was it was going to hurt, I mean if you truly liked them. But the extent was what I had no idea of.
Heartbreak is not an easy pill to swallow, not even for the strongest man/woman. I always thought I could escape that pain I mean I was a strong girl nothing like that will ever happen to me (being friend zoned and all, lol). Experience they say is the best teacher and might I say I have learnt.
He has been hurt too, but he wanted to wait, to confirm that I wouldn't break his heart. However, I am not a patient person and I quickly withdraw myself from situations when I don't feel or see my feelings reciprocated. I am in a better place now, thankfully, and I chose what was best for me.
Every human being is different and processes pain differently. For some it might be a break that gets them back on their feet, for some music, for another it might be space. Learning what works for you and understanding why it works is important. If it's space to you need declare it from the beginning and don't string someone along with the 'lets see how it goes' statement. He or she is a human being and can't switch their feelings off or on. Learn to be considerate of the other person.

See you next week!!
I've been in this position, twice now. I wish the men I had feelings for were as expressive as I was. It took a lot of courage for me to admit my feelings and I was prepared to handle the rejection if it came. But what I got was worse than rejection. I was ignored, had my feelings belittled and ridiculed. I am over them now and I'm not exaggerating when I say that I'm really happy at this point in my life. Thank you for sharing this piece. I enjoyed it
ReplyDeleteHi it's angel. I am so glad you enjoyed it!! I feel like the feelings of the other person is always neglected and that has to stop. Even if they have been hurt before, it doesn't give them the right to treat the other person wrongly. So glad you've moved on sis! Stay tuned for next week's topic.
