Golden Knife

Teach me to love you less and set you free…
When you feel that you are forced with me..
Even when you know that my love is so strong..
Teach me to let go of you..Even if i want you more..
Many months I tried to give you a perfect life..
Gave you everything that you desired in your life..
But it was never enough I know it by now..
Yet I am holding on.. Because I believe its true love..
But I know you are like a golden knife…
That I keep get stabbing for being so kind..
Am I a fool I ask myself every time..
To be stabbed and keep bleeding until I die..
I am tired and I am draining out of this life..
I need to let you go and move on in life..
I love you and care for you.. But..I too have a life..
I can’t go on bleeding every time..
Because I know you don’t want me but I know…
Someone someday will cherish my life..
And heal this cracking bleeding heart of mine..
I say this to you one last time..
Please teach me to let you go out of my life!!

Paghunda Zahid Date: 2/26/2021 4:23:00 AM One sided love always hurts. If you are trying your best, yet your beloved is not satisfied, if they are ignoring your efforts, then you must go on. Because in relation we both have to give our 100%. Yes, sometimes, we are too blinded to see the sacrifices of our partner, and that's what create problems. But if your beloved is a self centered person, & you find no joy, no peace in the relationship, end it, and move forward! Yes, you can do it, even without your beloved. Login to Reply
