It's incredible that the ones we trust the most are usually the ones who hurt us the worst. It is only when we make ourselves vulnerable that we give another being the power to break us. We make it so easy for them to hold our heart in the palm of their hands as we unknowingly just sit back and watch them squeeze it tighter and tighter until it no longer beats.
We rather sit in denial because we do not want to accept that the one we hold so high could care so little. We look away and make excuses for their behavior. How long can we look away and pretend?
Still, at end of it all we are left to pick up the mess and gather our emotions- and then the only regret is not getting out sooner. The time you wasted on someone that did not appreciate you, used you, and allowing yourself to let your guard down. EVERYTHING in life, both good and bad IS a learning experience. Though through the fog of pain it's impossible to see, there is always a clear purpose behind it. You will become stronger, more cautious, or even bitter. Every single heartache is necessary in order for us to grow, learn, and become who we are meant to be in life.
In time new love will bloom and an aching heart will begin to beat again...stronger than before...
