Why don’t you love me?
What did I do wrong?
Did I hurt you?
Did I Disappoint you?
Was I not the person you wanted me to be?
Sometimes in the middle of the night I cry for you.
You left me and I still don’t know why.
I loved you, wasn’t that enough?
Your rejection turned me bitter and twisted.
I drank to hide the hurt.
I partied, I danced, but the pain wouldn’t go away.
Now I feel numb.
I try not to think of you and how you left.
It kills me inside to know I wasn’t enough.
I little piece of me died when you rejected me.
You left and I never want you back.
I was inspired by prompt 4. Share a time when you felt a deep sense of rejection.
Really great post Carol, seems we had the same idea this week. So glad we have both moved on.
