"we accept the love we think we deserve" -- perks of being a wallflower


I miss you so much. It hurts me to say I love u because I know that if I think that I won't stop thinking about you. And wishing things were different. Even though I of course do sometimes. And it's hard. It's hard being strong for so long. It's hard not hearing your voice or being able to talk to you. It's hard knowing I won't get a good morning beautiful in the mornings anymore from you. And I keep telling myself that it's OK. Becasuse I know it is. And because I know that in the end someone else will love me more than u ever did. But for now the pain is still there. I make sure to hide it deep down, but sometimes, even just the thought of you, or the sound of your name, brings it back to the surface. I miss u. I miss u a lot and I would be lying to say that I don't . I miss my best friend and I miss the one that I thought was my soulmate. I miss you, but I know that soon the memories will die, they've already faded. And soon i won't even have to hide the pain because there will no longer be any pain to hide. I want to say I love u. But I don't want to have to think about u anymore. Not tonight at least. So instead I'll say farewell and say "I."

Just a beautiful exhibition of the emotion of heartbreak. So reflective. I'm sure there are millions of people who could they that these words mimic their own personal stories and experiences. An expression of loss, despair and personal strength to move forward. Just Awesome♡♡♡

I understand the pain in the poem from being left behind and hurt, "It hurts me to say I love you because I know that if I think that I won't stop thinking about you" (line 2). Hiding the pain from being hurt mentally is harder than most would think. This poem voices the minds of many people that have gone through the same problem, just like myself.

This is exactly what i am going through right now. I see him all the time and he hugs me and i want to tell him that i love him but i cant because it hurts to much to remember those memories.
