Self-Defeating

 

 

 

 

The most painful love is the one-sided love.

 

 

 

 

The most humiliating love is the unanswered love.

 

 

 

 

It is a sort of love that your lover does not understand as such.

 

 

 

 

The most painful love occurs when you display your gifts in front of your lover\'s eyes,

 

 

 

 

but your lover still cannot see them.

 

 

 

 

The most terrible love is when the person you love does not share the same feelings with you.

 

 

 

 

The most excruciating pain is when your tears roll down unnoticed in front of your beloved one.

 

 

 

 

The saddest suffering occurs when your heart declares your love aloud,

 

 

 

 

but your heart\'s declaration is ignored by your lover\'s ears.

 

 

 

 

The most terrible pain happens when your lover denies you,

 

 

 

 

and in your humiliating defeat, you will be left alone.

 

 

 

 

Licking your wounds and lamenting your misfortune.

 

 

 

 

The most terrible pain occurs when you feel unable to look at your face in the mirror,

 

 

 

 

since you know that you are not the same person anymore.

 

 

 

 

You have become a deformed creature who allows the denial and rejection of your unworthy lover to draw defeat on your face,

 

 

 

 

and the door of your self-esteem and self-worth, in return, may be closed in your face.

 

 

 

 

You might keep saying that I can\'t resist this one-sided love, and I can\'t move on.

 

 

 

 

Well, if you fall into a trap,

 

 

 

 

Will you find a way out?

 

 

 

 

Or will you surrender to your captivity?
