“Maybe I was destined to forever fall in love with people I couldn’t have. Maybe there’s a whole assortment of impossible people waiting for me to find them. Waiting to make me feel the same impossibility over and over again.”

People tend to glorify love.

Or maybe the fact of “falling in love”.

Romanticizing every single aspect of it.

From encountering that “special” someone or as people like to call it their “other half”,

To the “joyful” moments shared between the love birds.

Emphasizing how their (once) dull world turns into a colorful canvas at the mere presence of that loved one.

How “love” has positively impacted their lives.

How it made them happier,

Lighter,

And brighter.

How it was everything they had ever hoped for.

How they have finally achieved that “fairy-tale” like end they’ve dreamed about.

But,

Love can also hurt you,

It can destroy you,

It can be utterly and completely unfair,

It can make you fall “head-over-heels” with someone,

Someone, who won’t ever see you in that light,

Someone, who’ll never (ever) reciprocate your feelings,

And all you’re left with is pain.

Pain, at the sight of him with someone else,

Someone other than you.

Hurt, at the way he gazes at her,

With a look full of love and adoration painted on his face.

A look that will never (ever) be directed towards you.

Because there is no place for you in his heart.

(Not anymore)

She has already claimed it.

All of it.

Every single piece.

While you,

Are left with nothing.

But the few glances he might spare your way,

The few laughs you’ll share,

That “precious” smile (you loved and still love dearly) is no longer meant for you.

But for her.

His free time is spent with her.

Not you.

(Not anymore)

It’s as if he’s erased you from his life.

He still cares about you.

That’s what he wants you to believe.

Or is it what you want to believe?

But she’s more important.

More important than you.

Why?

(That’s when the ugly truth comes to life)

Because he loves her.

That’s right,

He loves her.

Her.

Not you.

Never you.

Get it now?

Your feelings are wasted on him.

Yet, you can’t help but love him.

Hoping that maybe, just maybe he’ll turn you way.

But you know,

Deep down,

That, that day will never come.

(It will never come)
