I Can't Make You Love Me

You'll know it when you feel for someone. You can't help who you fall in love with, you can't help what your heart will persuade you do and you can never prepare yourself well enough for the reciprocation that you receive.

Love will make you do things that you never thought was possible and love will also make you feel things that you never knew existed. You'll try to tell yourself that maybe in time, if you tried harder that things will work out. So you mask the uncertainty that you feel with a half smile on your already chipped heart. You open the flood gates, expecting nothing in return. You try to chase away the bad dreams with that vague but heartfelt stare that they give. You try to calm your heart's edged intuition as you close your eyes because their warmth overpowers walking away on a cold night.

Hope. That is all you can do. Hoping that they will join you on a path less traveled. Hoping that they will hold your hand and accompany you on that roller coaster of a life. Hoping that they will realize what is in front of them. Sure you may not have a fancy occupation, you may not have your whole life figured out, and may not be sure where this whole experience is going but there is one thing that you are sure of, the feeling that you have for them. You can only hope that in time that they will realize that you've given them all that is left in you.

You can only support them to where they want to go in life, with or without you. As they walk away, you just have to let them take your love as a souvenir of what could have been. As much as you apologize for being a mess because you've unleashed your most deepest inner thoughts, you look best when you speak from the heart. Pain is inevitable BUT suffering is optional. It's not a bad thing to be wanted but why yearn for someone that doesn't reciprocate that same feeling? It is a sign for you to fall back and to give up the fight.

People should not be reckless with other people's hearts and you should not put up with people who are reckless with yours. So as much as you'd risk the fall just to know how it feels to fly, just know that someday...someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else.



.."I will give up this fight. i can't make you love me if you don't..you can't make your heart feel something it won't"...
