There are many things I have learned this past year that you can love someone and care for them so deeply that once you realize that all those texts and signs meant the wrong thing.
But once you realize that it’s far too late.
You’ve already tattooed him in you’re heart and memories.
Good friends is all were forbidden to be it hurts so much to go around day by day walking and grasping that the one guy I feel in love with five years ago Doesn’t feel the same way.
The burning agonizing pain I feel…is hidden…
I walk feeling shame that I was blinded by what truly meant the most…love... I know that it’s better to have him in my life as a friend than not having him in it at all…
