Love Yourself

December 1, 2017

When we first met, I didn't like you

Infact, there were two others waiting in my que.

But you were sweet and pushed yourself through,

Little did I know, you didn't like you.

I told my friends about how great you are,

How confident you seemed, and how you loved me.

I would never have guessed that it was all an act.

As weeks passed we both became busy,

No time for each other, let alone a text or call.

This is when I knew our relationship was going to fall.

Its not you its me, you said, I thought it all was in my head.

After you broke my heart

Now that we have grown apart,

I realized that you need to be able to love yourself

Before you love anyone else.
