Somebody Like That
I remember when you liked me— we were kids, and you really liked me.
But I thought you were just being a friend. I liked someone else. I didn’t know better.
Now when I look for someone, I look for somebody who would want me the way you did— the type that would do anything for you, the kind straight out of a book, a fairy tale, the kind every girl dreams of.
But we grew up. You don’t like me like that anymore.
And I can’t find anyone who wants me like that now— because people like that only exist in the movies, from what I hear.
So I gave up looking. That doesn’t mean I don’t want it. It just means I want it to find me.
Because I tried. And failed one too many times.

YES WE ARE🔥🔥🔥
A sad poem that speaks to growing up and the disillusionment that goes with it. Knights in shining armor, princesses, and happy ever after only exists in fairy tales that we leave behind and find a harder world. Well written
Thank you
You are most welcome
Life is a series of hello's and goodbye's, and you capture beautifully the transient nature of relationships, lessons to be learned. The wisdom to recognize the true value of another, even in hindsight, is a step towards finding something more meaningful and fulfilling, never say never, it comes when you least expect it. A very honest and well written piece!
Thank you
