disappointment


Life is so predictable and disappointing. At first its perfect and you experience love for the first time. You engage in that perfect first kiss with the boy you've always dreamed of dating. You feel wanted and loved. Never forget that there is always someone better than you. Eventually the boy will see it too. This is when the predictable part kicks in. Your dream boy doesn't love you anymore. He falls for the prettier and more alive version of you. You are never good enough. I am never good enough. No one ever admits to the disappointment life and relationships bring. People want to be loved and the truth is, there isn't enough people to care enough to love. The moment you realize the world doesn't care about your hopes and dreams is the moment you feel alone. you realize no one loves you as you desire them to. Love and life are two powerful discouraging words. They are portrayed as the most beautiful things on this earth, when in fact it's all disappointing.
