I want to be in love , proper proper in love
Not this bullshit kinda love
The selfish kinda lover , I have no time for
They say when you least expect it , you’ll find them
Right now , that’s bullshit too
No, my heart is not broken, thank the Lord for that
But you know I put in , I invest
And then…
They can’t return it
Incapable of turning people down
Incapable of just being chilled
I heard its called a ‘anxious attachment’ style
But I am not anxious
I am just annoyed , that they can’t return my love
They can’t return my kindness, sweetness
I am not like anyone they’ve ever met before
I know it and they know it
But I am not enough for them
I hate being left on read
The blue tick generation is so absurd
Sometimes I wish that I found my person
Other times I don’t want that
Because this world is a broken world
Broken people hurt people
Broken people hurt good people
Period.
My friend said I should save myself
Jesus saved me though
So, I am Found not lost
I don’t need saving , perhaps common sense
Perhaps common sense , is what I am missing
Or there is something fundamentally wrong with me
‘You such a good person’ but I can’t be that person for you
Not sure , where my common sense is ?
Perhaps I should run or walk to find it
Because I never listen
