She was no stranger to tears
She had fallen in love
And these were tears of joy
Or so she thought
She dived in fully
Ignoring all warnings
This must be love, she told herself.
She was no stranger to tears
She believed she was still in love
She had given herself to him completely
But now there was pain
What’s a little pain for the one I love? she asked herself
She was no stranger to tears
Her pillow was at the receiving end
They streamed down her swollen cheeks with reckless abandon
Her black eye had begun to heal
He had apologized like he always did
But now she is filled with doubt
Could this really be love?
She was no stranger to tears
She found the courage to break it off
No apology would suffice
This is not love, it never was love
Her eyes welled up again
She was no stranger to tears
She let them flow
This time, they were comforting.

Very nice
Expensive words.
Eye opener to being extremely insecure by your lover dispositions… I got the message it is so nice.
Relatable..
