energy better invested elsewhere should be...
I wanted it
badly enough
I was willing to fight for it
I let it go
how can battle hold
what love could not
& throwing myself
relentlessly
against the cliffs of desperation
gains me nothing
what does not come willing
never comes at all
I wanted it
badly
so I let it go

I'm a lover, not a fighter comes to mind. I'm all for fighting for a relationship...when it's equal energies invested. Otherwise, it's just beating yourself up. I love that song, by the way

It wants you or it doesn't. I figure know your own worth enough to walk away. Thank you, Fia

“throwing myself

Seems easy enough, but tell that to my heart.
You might have to speak up, maybe use a megaphone though. Seems she doesn’t know how to listen these days…
Brilliantly written, Willow.

Powerful write, Willow. Relationships can be difficult, especially if only one is willing to put in the effort. Appreciate you.

Equal or out, that's become my motto. This was the result of a conversation with my frustrated daughter the other night. Thank you, Damian

Oh, how this pne resonates. I have invested with all my heart many times, but it takes two to tango.
And it will leave you hearbroken and drained. Love this piece, sis 💖

Honestly, I can dance alone...or with my cat. I can do without the extra legwork. Thank you, sis 💖
