The Worst Kind of Love

How pathetic it is to love one who loves another.

Fantasy bred out of disillusionment and low self esteem—— for how can I respect myself and let this happen to me.

How can I love and not be loved.

How can my heart be shot back at me like a ricochet and hurt this damn much.

How do I love myself if I hurt myself?

I must love this pain more than i love loving me because I’m still here. Waiting.

I want to compare it to a severed limb, like a phantom limb pain.

Except more like the phantom and no injury this feeling truly is, for there was never a limb to begin with and the pain was all in your head.

But does that make the pain less real?

I often ask myself.

Should I feel justified in feeling like this at all?See there is no hallmark for death of a “coulda-been” love

For how do you mourn the death of a well-crafted fantasy?

Like bouncing a ball on the wall only you are involved

A dead dream in which she was never a part of—

warrants no sympathy at all.

No scars, no proof—no cause for this pain.

What a fool thinks all he tells, for licking his invisible wounds.

Except I know they are there - I feel them piercing my heart and yet to the world—the one who is the world to me—

—me and my pain don’t exist.

Invisible scars- phantom pains are the remnants of this kind of love- this most pathetic love.

Visible only to the fool-

That fool being me.
