i miss the way you used to love me. but as time went on, you stopped. it seemed like all the love turned to hate and the object of your hatred was me. the endless compliments shifted to judgments and i couldn’t help but want you to love me how i still loved you. my existence in your mind dissipated as your mark in my heart deepened. i can’t help but wanting you to want me but i know you don’t and sometimes it still hurts. just know that i’ll care forever, no matter how much it pains me.
