To The People Who Can't Love Me Back

It's fine if you can't love me, I just want you to know a few things.

To The People Who Can't Love Me Back
Tumblr

It's currently 6:42 AM. I have only slept about three hours in the past two days because of the aftermath of a party. I've just been thinking about the things that could have been recently, so I've decided to write something to the people who can't love me back.

To the people without names: I can't force you to get to know me. Although I wish I could, that's not my place in the universe. As long as I see you in someway, maybe on the street or in my dreams, I can only hope that you'll make yourself known to me.

To the people who broke my heart: It's all fine now. Sometimes I find myself growing a little nostalgic, but other than that I'm fine. Even though we both loved each other at one point in time, we both know that our failed efforts of reconnection will leave us just as broken.

To the people who hate me: Go ahead. Fling your stones, shoot your arrows, and fill me with doubt. What do I care? I will have a place for you in my heart regardless of your feelings for me.

To the people who I love: Well this is tragic. I love you but you can't love me. It sounds like a cheesy romance novel if you'd ask me. Just hear me out. You don't need to love me the way that I love you. You don't have to spend every day following me around with rose colored glasses, but it would be nice to know that we aren't through. That somehow there is a chance for the impossible to happen.

To myself: I know it's hard for you to find yourself these days. Please remember everything that has happened so far; don't forget who you are. You will find a way to love me back. Keep searching.


Now as I begin to falter back into sleep, I hope that each and every one of you take something from this. Live, Breathe; Feel.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
