If You Can’t Trust Me, Leave
Just because I told you a part of my story doesn’t make you the author of my life
Just because I loved another deeply before you, doesn’t
make me love you any less
Just because I confide in you time and again doesn’t make
you my sole confidante
I am being true to you and to me by showing you my past
I don’t want to behave like I just landed on the planet and
am yet to build a life
If you can’t trust me, leave
If you can’t acknowledge my past, the door hasn’t closed
If you can’t support my ventures for you must twist all to
suit your selfish ego,
Stop wasting my time and your time
When you pursued me
I told you I needed to fix 'me' for I was a mess
You thought otherwise
I let you in amidst my turmoil
You showed understanding,
But can I say, you were just getting your way in?
Your obsession gives me chills
It makes the love die at the door of my heart
And the warmth freeze under my skin
You don’t trust me around any male
And what does that make me in your eyes?
A whore who can’t keep her knees together
If you believe this heart doesn’t belong to you
Go
If you believe I am a public property
Go find yourself a private property
You all might wonder why I don’t fight for love
You might think, this being is so cold at heart and doesn’t
love
Wrong!
I love so fiercely,
But the pact I made with myself years ago made me who I am
today
Loving another is not defined by begging them to stay when
they choose to leave
For how long will you cling to one who doesn’t adore and
value you?
For how long will you keep someone who doubts you and
everything else you do?
For how long will you stay with one who watches over you like
a herdsman?
Loving you doesn’t mean my life has to turn into an island
I am stronger with an army around me!
I love you dearly and sincerely
But I can’t handle your insecurities
Love is supposed to be sincere, and true,
Trust is a driving force in a relationship
Even the most beautiful union is destroyed by obsessive jealousy
and other insecurities
I don’t want to be in a strained relationship,
That is not what I signed up for
Love is supposed to be beautiful
The ugliness mustn’t overpower the beauty
Choose how you wish to trade
