I want to believe that we still have hope. Hope for a love we believed in. This past month has been a long drawn process of downhills and most of the time I am just fighting to hold on, gasping above the surface for some form hand to reach out to me. I don’t feel secure, much less safe in my own relationship anymore.
Everyday, I wake up worrying whether today we will fight. Whether we will have a good time. Whether things will be better and everyday, this questions yields the same answer. We fight almost every single day. It really is getting harder to breathe.
I tell myself that I love you and that if I love you I should hold on. Hold on strongly to what could be. But again, everyday, my faith gets weaker. Never have I been in a point in a relationship where the only solution I can think of to every problem is to give up.
Today, you let me walk away from you. Today you didn’t care if I never turned back. I was sick yet I told myself to put you above everything. I told myself that after the horrible horrible quarrel we had the day before, this was the least I could do for you. I told myself to make the best out of this opportunity YOU gave me. I tried to plan the day, wanting to go explore new places but I decided against it since I had the money and the ability to spend a bit for us. So I did. I brought you out, had lunch then the movie and then dinner. All day, I kept my emotions in check. I tried not to whine even when there are times I really wanted you to know how sick I was. When I accidentally raised my voice, I apologize because I was trying to be better. For you. Even agreeing to watch soccer was already part of my plans. But who’s to blame when plans get thrown up in the air. I do not blame you for wanting to watch soccer. I do not blame the fact that you were there to support a cause. I do not blame you.
But what I don’t understand is the fact that you had no regard about how I felt nor how I feel. Nevermind the fact that I wasn’t feeling well. You put yourself above everything else. And that. That upsets me. Remember you said that you will always put me first. What is this then? You didn’t bother asking me properly and nicely. You didn’t bother to hide your emotions. You didn’t bother to pretend that you were the least bit interested in sending me home.
Nevermind all that. Really. Because when you got home, I tried to express my feelings to you but you are not interested in hearing me out either. Whatever happened to promising to each other that we will never let one or the other sleep with tears or a heavy heart? Sigh. You want to sleep, you are tired, you….. Yeap, you get the point.
So here I am now after days of quarreling. I am just too numb. I want to fight so badly for you but I cannot find any reasons to. There you are, a changed man. Yet, you don’t realise it. You are not afraid of losing me. You don’t protect me the way you would 10 months ago. You forget your promises. I think I’ve given you everything. My soul, my time, my energy, my money, my love, my strength… literally everything. You take everything out of me and you don’t reciprocate anything in return. What am I to you?
):
I am so so so so so so (fucking) tired of this bullcrap. Even when I try, things fail.
So this is to you:
If you love me, I beg you to show me. Show me with all you heart. Not your words, not your promises. Love me like you would 2 years ago when I didn’t love me. Love me like I mean the world to you. Love me like I’m your last dying breath. Love me. Love me and only me. I don’t ask for you to be perfect, I ask you to be the best you can ever be for me. The old you wouldn’t put soccer first. The old you would not even want to watch soccer on a date out with me. The old you would not even insist to watch soccer. The old you would not leave me walking away with the knowledge that I’m sick.
My old love would watch me to sleep everyday. My old love would fight and assure me that no matter how tough the going gets, you and I would always be the strongest after every fight and before we close our eyes to sleep. My old love broke promises but he made up for it. My old love loved me with all he had.
I really have little tears left to cry for you. From hear on, I really leave it to God. And on this not,
Dear God,
I know I haven’t been the most faithful to you and I say this so often that I am ashamed. But I ask of you… I ask that you show me the light. If he is the one for me, show me. But if he is not, you show me too. I do not want to be in this state of my mind. It is too exhausting. I have school, friends and my family to give my energy to if it’s not to him. People say this is a phase. If it is, then you let this pass quickly. Because it is becoming to taxing on us. I pray that you help us through this for all I know now is that I love him. I love him so much till my heart hurts whenever I think about the current situation we are in now. I am tired God. Tired of trying to make things right. Tired of believing that there is something more to this. If this is not for me, this is not the path that you would to my happily ever after, then show me.
Amin.
Really have never been through so much shit periods in just one month with one person. I shall end here for now.
Your’s sincerely.
