Deep down I know how much of a good partner I am
Because I've always dreamed about something loving me the way I love
And technically I know my worth
But the second I get a little bit of love I stop looking for more
Because the whole inside me is too deep
And to feel it even a little bit I can handle being treated like shit
I worked the steps
I've put the work
But I can't ever seem to fight for more
I put my whole heart and end up being ignored
Sometimes I feel like an addict going through withdrawal
Because any sense of my drug in that stage is enough
Even if it kills me
Even if cry
I'll settle for a tiny bit just to try
To take my chances with the world
Because I'm desperate for love
I wish loving me wasn't so hard
I whis someone could give me love with the same ease as I give mine
And I wish that for once in my life I didn't feel like I'm too much
I know my soul is pure
But my mind is a mess
And unfortunately at the end of the day my soul matters less
I think being loved is my one and only big dream
That I never really got to feel
And I wish I could just love myself
But somehow it's harder then loving anyone else
So the irony isn't lost on me
I wish for love like mine
But I can't seem to love myself at the same time

when did you first start feeling like your love was “too much” for people? because nobody wakes up believing that about themselves for no reason.
i think in my early childhood because of my family situation, I am well aware where the problems come from because I've been working through them on therapy for years
i used to accept the smallest scraps of love too because part of me thought maybe this was all i was ever going to get. loving people deeply while feeling impossible to love back is such a lonely kind of pain
this resonates with me so much 😭
i love this !!
