When will I be with someone who I won't need to worry about losing?
I've been traumatized by this relationship. Whenever it ends, I have no idea how I'll ever face love again. Love is the devil. It's out to do nothing but destroy you once you fall victim. According to this relationship I can say:
Love is controlling
Love is destruction
Love is sickness
Love is fear
Love is crippling
Love is hatred
Love is overwhelming
Love is nothing I want to be apart of. But how can I say that when all I do is love? I'm just not giving it to the right person. I'm giving it to someone who doesn't see or appreciate the amount of love I have for them. He doesn't see. How does he not see everything I've endured in this relationship just to keep it going? Holy shit this is beginning to be unbearable.
The conversation we had tonight started with me somehow coming across old writings of his and trying to explain how I love trying to understand people through their past. I ended up falling into the "Brandy" topic, which is one I hate with all that I have for hate. I honestly envy that girl and the relationship he had with her. Only because what I have with him now, is not comparable in the least. During this whole 12 months we've been together he's told me how he STILL feels about her and I listened to him talk about it. I understood it. But when we are here now, a year together and he still can't even say how he feels about me? What is going on here? What am I doing? How do I love this person? Why do I love this person? Someone who's put me through so much torment and pain, how do I still have the will to love? How?
This is why love is a puzzle I'll never put together. I've tried so hard to understand what love is really doing in the mind of me and other people. What is this ridiculous feeling that ultimately destroys you? Why is it called love? This is taking up too much energy and it's just making my life seem like a waste. I need to put my passion towards more important things. Love is weakness disguised as emotion. Love gives people the excuse to be weak.
I'm just being bitter. I had a rough night. Tomorrow will be better. Then again, I have way too much to figure out. But who doesn't?
Let me tell you what love isn't; freedom. That is the last thing I feel like I have right now. Love is confining. And the more I keep typing that word, the more i despise it.
Goodnight. Finally.
