Loving You Hurt Alot

Loving you hurt a lot, but there was a time when it was the most beautiful feeling I ever known, so I hold onto that and let the painful part go.

That’s how I save myself, by choosing to remember the good instead of dwelling on the bad. Because loving you hurt a lot, but it didn’t compare to the pain that came from losing myself.

I wrote this for me as a reminder that I can choose what to carry and what to put down. I had a memorial for all that was heavy and I laid it to rest and told myself you’re not mine to carry then threw flowers across the top and went to celebrate myself from that day on .

I wrote this for me because loving you hurt a lot and choosing myself is the only way to save myself. I died 100 times in your arms, and you hurt me in so many ways so today I lay everything down that hurts and I choose me.
