Sometimes Love Is Not Enough

They say you’ll feel better
once you got it out of your system,
why do I feel more cut off?
More detached then ever?
I’m sure they lied,
at least you know how I feel,
at least you know, I have been scarred
to an extend that breaking ties
with you are vital… 

If I want to look the world 
in the eye again I want to 
do it with my head held high,
not sheepishly and scared
I want to be the person 
I know I can be,
I don’t want to be held down
by someone’s toxic idea
of what friendship is…

Yes, I’ve got attitude 
and I will probably love you forever
sometimes the hurt overshadows the love
sometimes love is not enough…
