Treading Water

"The only thing that can shatter a man and bring him to tears is the woman he loves."


I say:

"And one thing that can hurt a woman more than being left by the man she loves, is being the person that man runs to when he is shattered by the woman he loves."




I am not a fan of masochism, or being a martyr. I am not a hopeless romantic, nor am I a love fool. But something is making me hurt from the insides and there is a constant pain in my chest where my heart should be. I know the remedy is you, but how do i remedy the pain, when I know the pain is because of you?


We all have the tendency to forget why we are here swimming in suffocating situations, so we tread water to remember why we are here, drowning.

Internal Conflict

I know where I stand, but I fear dwelling in my own place.

So I float aimlessly in circles, stagnant.
