Not loved

What happens when

You're not loved in return

You become a shell of yourself. The light inside you dims, and the pieces

of you, the goodness you once knew, start to slowly fade into the 

background. You give and give, hoping that this time around the love

you're hoping to feel will get returned, but you're left with an even

bigger emptiness than before. You start to question your worth,

wondering why you or your love wasn't enough for someone else.

When you're not loved in return, it scars you, it truly breaks you down

and makes you believe you're the blame for it all. You give more, but it's

never enough. The emptiness inside you is a reminder of the distance

between who you were and who you've become how you completely

lost yourself in the process of trying to be loved.

The thing is, you can keep giving but nothing will come from it.What's

wrong for you will never be right for you. Once you see through the

brokenness, you'll realize you weren't the problem the love you gave 

was pure, and the lack of it in return isn't a measurement of your worth.

It's not a flaw in who you are. You will see that it's not love that hurts,

it's putting your heart in the wrong hands. You'll see that your love is

meant to be cherished, reciprocated, and nurtured. You'll rebuild and

reclaim your light. And in time, you'll attract the love that matches the

depth and purity of your own heart love that sees you, appreciates you,

and gives back what you've always deserved. You'll stop giving away

pieces of yourself to someone who doesn't see your value.
