Bitch, but a Titan

I understand the success rate is 0%

when asking somebody to calm down 

but I plead for you to relax

and take every ounce of support I can offer

 

Yes

your rejection hurts 

like tearing off a band-aid 

but it's a righteous pain

with thought and purpose

and unlike the gray areas

available on the ready for you

my heart and mind remain clear

once the dust settles

and I hope you believe that 

because I do.

 

Even now,

I believe you deserve my support

as a resource

and a trusted vault

even from a distance

because you're a fucking titan 

and you're worth everything you want elsewhere

and I cannot bear 

to see those eyes

with such genuine doubt

staring blankly ahead

over and over

I

Agreed :) and if space

Agreed :) and if space provides comfort from me, so be it. Just hurts cuz I want to love her and be there to support her, but life goes on

Love, the layered thing,

Love, the layered thing, indeed. We can truly care for someone, and care for them greatly, but not necessarily in the role that they may desire, or that we might once have desired to play. 

 

It's a tough line to walk, to step back from one type of love while staying in another, and one your former partner may not embrace now, or perhaps ever (though that may change over time). Still, to offer it is to truly care. Your writing is not just good, but timely in regard to thoughts on my mind. Thank you.

My new motto is: I'm staging a coup d'etat. I'm taking my mind back!

a return to rationality and psudo-calm. :D
