mother said

my mom said

i had a habit

of fixating myself

on people

so when you

came along

i fell hard

 

my mom said

i trust too

easily

maybe that's

why it didn't

take long

to reveal

my secrets

 

my mom told

me that i'm

desperate

that's why

it was so easy

for you

to sweep me

off my feet

 

my mom said

i care too much

maybe that's

why it hurt

so much

when you left

 

my mom said

you were bad

for me

i never thought

that was true

maybe i'm

just bad for

you

Sometimes it takes a while to find the right person. Sometimes the easiest way to find them is to just.... stop looking. That's usually when they tend to appear.

This is lovely. It makes me think of my own mother and of my own children.
