She Told Me to Tell You

She told me to tell you

It’s been difficult, she can’t lie about that. She isn’t looking for your pity, she doesn’t want you to feel guilty but at least she hopes you can spare a minute to understand her.

She told me to tell you, she wishes to see you never and that’s not because she hate you, no, it’s because she’s still stuck trying to recover and figure out where it went awry. Seeing you will open the wound, she’ll wish for the warmth your hugs gave her, she’ll want to hear your heart beating just once more.

She told me to tell you, how life has been meaningless since you turned your back on her. The future became blurry because she imagined it with you in it and now that you are no longer here, it's not picture perfect anymore.

She told me to tell you, she acts tough to maintain the image she crafted so perfectly, in public she is still the strong woman everyone knows but inside she’s broken and even the pieces that remains a bit intact are so fragile.

She told me to tell you she feels stupid trusting you, she shouldn’t have fallen so deep for you. It’s unlike her to be fooled and played like that, she isn’t sure whether she let her guard down or you’re just too good at these games.

She told me to tell you that she'll bounce back stronger, she always does.

She told me to tell you, she wishes you well. After everything she still believes there's immense amount of goodness in you, there's brilliance that she saw and still seeing from a far. She just hopes you'll find the type of woman who'll make you happy, everyone deserves that.
