I Hope You Know I’ll Be Okay Without You
I hope you know I wanted to be your every dawn and dusk. I wanted to find your lips in the half light, to drink you in, shed the sheets and wrap myself in you. I wanted the future we both imagined and that house dressed in ivy. I wanted that wrap-around porch, the curving garden, […]

People Who Break Your Heart Are Not The People You Deserve
Have you ever had your heart broken? Odds are, the answer is yes, and sadly I can relate. Heartbreak can happen for a number of reasons but one of the most common experiences is being left because you are not “good enough” or because there is someone better out there. I have been criticized by […]

Why He Won’t Let You Go, Even If He Doesn’t Want You
It’s a vicious, never-ending cycle. Your toxic man doesn’t want you until you’re finally over him, and then he finds you irresistible. Leaving an abusive relationship for good means you need to know how to protect yourself. He wants you. You give in. Then he doesn’t want you. It hurts. You find the strength to […]

This Time, I’m Finally Letting You Go
This is one of the hardest decisions of my life. Walking away from you. Even though all I want to do is wrap my arms around you and tell you everything is going to be okay. Ignoring you gets harder day by day. You know how you say you don’t need anybody? That’s a lie. […]

I Will Never Cry Over A Man Who Brings Me Pain
I don’t have the time to be sad and devastated because I’m too busy being upset and angry. I’m not doing it anymore. I’m never going to allow myself to lose valuable tears over a man who is just plainly undeserving of them. I’m no longer going to allow a man to break my heart […]

I Actually Let Myself Like You & You Totally Let Us Down
I don’t like guys very often but you were different. We talked, we clicked, and I thought we could build something real, but that didn’t happen. Instead, we ended before we could even start. It took me way too long to realize that you were just bored and stringing me along until you found something […]

I Don’t Want To Let You Go, But I Need To
But here we are. Two souls living separate lives. Forever just wasn’t in the cards for us. It’s like I can’t seem to get rid of you. Everywhere I turn, every thought that runs through my mind, it somehow always involves you somehow. I keep seeing you late at night as I close my eyes […]

This Is What It Truly Feels Like to Let Them Go
Someone once asked me, “What does it feel like?” It feels like lost hope. Because it is. It’s the admittance that you failed, that your hope for something great has been diminished. That you, that he, that she, that we altogether failed in our pursuit. It feels like disappointment. Because you wanted it, and then suddenly you […]

If You Have To Beg Someone To Be In Your Life, They Don’t Belong There
Love shouldn’t have to force you to lose your sense of self-respect. Love was never designed to be easy. As they all say, it’s foolish to rush into a love especially when you assume that you don’t really have to work hard to sustain it. No love is going to ever survive without substantial effort. […]

She Doesn’t Want To Give Up On You, But You Haven’t Given Her A Choice
She doesn’t want to give up on you, but you have proven that you aren’t worth her time. She keeps giving you more and more pieces of her, but you haven’t given her anything in return. You haven’t given her a reason to trust you, to have faith in you. You’ve only given her reasons […]
