I've never experienced mutual love, but I've felt one-sided love.
And that hurts.
And I've seen people flourish under it's beautiful gaze.
I've also seen people crumble.
They love, and are loved.
And then they break.
They say, 'I love you,'
But it's fake. They steal your hope and joy. And you cry, and hold a grudge.
Then you move on, eventually.
You find someone else.
And they lie, and cheat and steal.
And then you start over again.
On the never-ending cycle of love, loss, hate, and forgiveness. But why?
Why do we have to hurt? To cry?
I've never experienced mutual love, but I've felt one-sided love.
And that hurts.
And I've seen people flourish under it's beautiful gaze.
I've also seen people crumble.
But love is......beautiful.
You experience so much joy.
You laugh, you play, and hope it lasts forever.
It hurts.
But that's OK.
Because if it doesn't hurt, it wasn't real.
Love hurts, but we deal with it because it's beautiful.
