Better to have loved....

Fall in love they said 
It’ll be great they said  
But no one ever tells you about the things that aren’t great
No one ever tells you that some days you’ll want to punch your significant other in the throat or even in the face. 
Some days you’ll want to poke them in the eyes in their sleep. 
Or some days you’ll ask yourself why did you choose them? 
It’s usually after they do some stupid shit like drop pizza on your white sheets.
No one ever tells you that it’s okay to fight,
A fight doesn’t mean it’s over. 
Sometimes it’s a good thing.
No one ever tells you that some days you won’t want to talk to each other,
It’s okay, sometimes you need space.
No ever tells you to fully commit, put your fears aside and just love 
They always say be careful, you can’t trust anyone you know.
So you keep your guard up. 
No one ever tells you that it’s okay to not be all over social media. 
It doesn’t mean he isn’t claiming you, it doesn’t really mean anything. 
No one ever tells you that you sometimes have to put your significant other before your friends, 
Yeah they’ll be there forever, but for now, he’s the one you need to lean on. 
No one ever tells you that one day you’ll learn that love is not always enough 
Or that you may one day fall out of love. 
But what they say is true, it’s better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.

Watch Your Back

Watch your back Love creeps up behind you and suffocates You with chloroform  It sneaks in the door like a moth following the light through the crack of the door It makes you feel like a kid on summer vacation on their way to Disney land  It feels like that moment you light the candle after cleaning the house  Love feels like the first hint of the warm sun on the side of your face  It feels like finding a $100 bill in your pocket It feel like all the things that make you feel good until it doesn’t.  When it doesn’t, love feels like someone is stabbing you in the heart every.  single Day  It feels like you have a broken leg but don’t have crutches It feels like a sore throat Like someone is stabbing you,  constantly, in the neck. Watch your back Because love is great until it isn’t  Watch your back  Because when it’s bad, it’s bad. And no one is safe.  6/10/19 Laura Soriano

Differences

The worst part about us not all being raised the same is that We’re not all raised the same. I know it sounds stupid I know you’re thinking, duh why would we want to be alike? Our differences make us unique Helps us stand out from each other But what about the differences that make or break things? Different values Upbringings Core beliefs Different expectations of life of each other? And the things they can break Oh the things they can break Friendships Trust Relationships Promises So many things But I can only think about the things they broke for me I can only think about the fact that my whole life I was taught that hard work is the key and working is never a question And that he was taught that a job will come when it comes and we’ll eventually be okay I can only think about the fact that I was raised on love and the important of family while he He was raised around people who only worried about themselves People who would turn their backs when you needed t...

Who do I listen to?

My brain keeps telling me I did the right thing My brain keeps telling me it was never gonna work We were never gonna work My brain keeps telling me to let it go To say goodbye My brain keeps telling me it’s over But my heart, boy my heart It keeps telling me to love you It keeps questioning my actions Do I really love you? It asks me that everyday. My hearts wants you back It wants you here with me My hearts says this is where you belong But my brain keeps telling it to shut up
