Savage Love

I’m not mad because you don’t want me.

I’m mad because sometimes you act like you do & other days you act like I’m nothing. 

You hold me close just long enough to keep me hopeful.

Then you disappear like I never mattered.

It’s the inconsistency that hurts the most.

The way you keep me dangling between dreams & reality,

Like my heart is some kind of game.

If you don’t want me, that’s fine.

I can accept that. I can heal from that.

But don’t pretend.

Don’t play with my emotions like they’re disposable.

One moment, you’re everything I hope for & the next, you’re a stranger who barely acknowledges my presence.

It confuses me. It breaks me.

It teaches me to stop believing in your warmest moments,

Because your coldest ones always follow.

I deserve clarity, not confusion.

I deserve consistency, not chaos.

So no… I’m not mad that you don’t love me.

I’m mad that you made me believe you did, 

Only to tear that belief apart piece by piece.

If you’re going to walk away

Then please walk away completely.

Don’t hold onto me….

When it’s only convenient to you.
