#quotes about love
Why does the storm rock the flower
That gives it’s sweetest pollen to the bees?
Why does our God promise prosperity,
Then leave us tortured and broken on our knees?
Why does the sweetest fruit in summer
Always get picked away to rot?
Why does the happiest moment of our lives
Turn into just another nostalgic thought?
Why do the bad things come
To ruin all the pure?
Leave the faithful broken,
Equip the corrupt with the cure.
Why do bad things happen?
A question I can’t understand
As I stare into his pained eyes
And try to feed him some comforting lies.
His father left, and mother has cancer
How can I give him a satisfying answer?
He doesn’t deserve all that’s come his way.
All he did was love.
And what he loved was taken away.

“you were my first love and you always will be. i can’t say i don’t miss you but i cannot keep you here with me forever. the memory of the person you used to be is slowly fading and i’m starting to forget what it felt like to love you. what it felt like being loved by you. i see you with her and i resent you. i’m scared that my memories of you as my first love will be overshadowed by the destruction you caused in the end.”

“I’ll always secretly wish that the honor of being my first love went to someone more noble, honest, and deserving. I would never want to relive the 6 years of my life with you, especially if it would’ve ended in the same pain and destruction. But even though my heart sometimes fills itself with regret at allowing myself to become so misguided by my blinding love for you, I understand it was all necessary. It was necessary to surrender myself to the suffering you caused me to grasp the importance of knowing my own worth. To understand that I must put myself before anybody else. For the rest of my life the scars you left on my heart will shake when I think of my first love. But they will guide me in making decisions that will fulfill me. I have taken a lot of lessons away from loving you, like following my intuition and respecting myself enough to remove myself from toxic situations. And understanding that the way you treated me is the stark opposite of what I deserve. Most of all, loving you taught me that you cannot have bliss without suffering, simply because you do not know what true happiness is without feeling the deepest sadness.”
— s.c. { i will be happier than i’ve ever been and i owe it all to the way you destroyed me }
