Who would have known it was a bad idea to fly up here to spend valentines day weekend with him? I thought it was a great idea. I thought that maybe, just maybe, he would see me and remember why he fell in love with. He told me on the phone that he didn't want to be with me anymore. That should have hurt enough. But instead, I forced him to let me come see him, only to hear in person that he still doesn't want to be with me.
Does anyone know what it feels like to lose someone that has been so important in your life?
Does anyone know what it feels like to let go of someone that you don't want to let go of?
Does anyone know what it feels like to feel your world crumbling around you?
Does anyone know what it feels like to finally let that someone go?
How does it feel?
How do you get over someone when you don't want to get over them?
I'm sitting across from him right now. We're sitting at the cafe on campus and he's studying and I'm just on my computer as far as he knows. What he doesn't realize is my heart is splitting in two. I look up and see his face. We were walking on the streets today and I finally realized that he never loved me as much as I loved him.
This is what I want to say to him.
I think I'm a masochist
I like the pain that you inflict.
The bitter sweet pang of seeing your face
I sit on the steps and I wait for you
I flew miles to come and see you
And hear in person that you still don't want to be with me.
You think that this should be easier
That our relationship should be more simple
That you shouldn't endure the pain you endure
But what about the fact that you are killing me?
I'm waiting on the steps and I sit to see you.
I walk miles to be near to you.
And see in person what I will soon be losing.
I know that I'm a masochist
This is no secret anymore.
I hold onto the pain that you inflict.
I can do better.
But that hurt I can't let go of.
I do it to myself.
We haven't kissed. He won't do it.
I'll keep you posted on how the rest of the torture of a weekend goes.
The best thing would be to pack my belongings up, be a big girl, and save my dignity.
But why do that when instead I could beg for him, and lose every ounce of respect for myself?
I'm a masochist.
