do you know why it hurts so much? It hurts because I fell into what I was running away from. It hurts because you taught me to fight for what I deserved only to find that it's you I have to fight for! You made me believe I deserved the best, to be loved, cared, and cherished.You said it's best if it was YOU but why do you let me feel like an option, like the rest of the gang not even at least your best friend. Why do you take me for granted, why do you not run out of excuses, why is it easy for you to leave and ignore me? You made me strong, you made believe in myself only to be challenged by You!...Yes, it hurts so much to be hurt by You! ↗

You don't love me "Johnny", you don't even care for me. You're selfish and egoistic! I may not be the best but I give my all in loving you. You always treat me less, you even treat me like your rest. I'm not happy of what's going on but I won't be happy either if I'll go. I feel like I'm walking on a wire, always cautious, always conscious and sometimes nervous! I can't be who I am, I can't do what I do. I can't say what I feel! This isn't fair, this isn't right. But what is fair and what is not if feeling this hurt brings me close to you! ↗

It’s bad enough to love someone who don’t love you, but to have them told of it is perfectly awful. It makes me wild just to think of it. Ah, Fan, I’m getting so ill tempered and envious and wicked, I don’t know what will happen to me. - Polly ↗
