Compromise and Confidence

“Sometime loves goes to the demise
when you compromise too much of yourself to fit into the eyes of another.”

– someone I know-

I have tried and tried to think about if this applies to me.

I have confided in a few in my times of need.

Things I say, things I vent, things I pour are sometimes what I need to calm myself in my emotional state. To have a friend with a listening ear, to have a friend whom I can trust.

I don’t know how or why things got out of hand.

Insecurities.

Don’t we all have them?

Why, oh why do we let it rule our heart?

Why do we let it make us say horrible things to the ones we love?

Why can’t we just live and let live, learn to see others with their imperfections?

When can we actually live up to the expectations of the one who thirsts for more?

Why do I get the feeling I am paying for someone else’s sins?

To say love is strange would be an understatement.

To put things simply, I would only wish, just a teeeeeny wish, to be understood.

If you close your heart, no matter how I try, I will never earn your trust. I am a human being with feelings. I deserve to be treated with a little respect.

Wouldn’t it be nice, if we are unconditionally loved for what we are?

Now, that would be the painting I’d like to buy to hang on my wall…
