I just wanted so bad
for you to love me
the more I tried
the more I failed
I consumed in my efforts
the more I pleased you
the more you demanded
And eventually I stopped trying
the less I tried
the less I loved
Having nothing to hold on to
I gave up on your love.

walker, love is sometimes hard to find and then once found can be hard to keep.  Probably nothing you or they did, it just wasn't ment to be.  Sorry,  ME

My heart is thinking of yours, because it understands where you are writing from.

Hi Walker,

Yes this is very well written and happens often,

Love, Cerenity
