Emotional Investment

Why can't we just have everything?

I hated you for leaving me
But I hated myself more
For loving you that much
You've thrown it all away
Our dreams, our plans,
Our love, our everything
I can always find someone new
But the tremendous amount
Of emotional investment
Is what I feel so sorry about
Why can't we just have
everything and be happy?
Why do we have to lose
the one that we love?
Do we always have to end up
Loving the one who loves you?
Or you're going to wait
for the one you love?

i just can't help but i need to. in our lives we often wish to get what our heart desires but we are not that fortunate to have it. Carry on, exactly your doing great things...

Many of my insecurities have involved in fear of being loved too much and fear abandonment. If she loves me that much will I be good enough to love her the same. Striking a balance between the two is difficult.

My dear friend, I pray you find your love. But remember no love is without pain.

Losing the one we loved most is always such a heart break. Norbert, you always manage to paint the most perfect picture of your piece. Well done

Life is never perfect. It is full of irony. But, I guess... if it would be perfect. We will never know. We would be too happy, to appreciate it. Thanks for sharing Nobert. You always do a wonderful piece.

Maybe love chooses us and sometimes the pairings are unfortunate.
