Know this, if everything that you are is too much, or all you have to give is not enough. It is not your shortcoming, but theirs.

If they cannot love the wholeness of you, do not give them pieces. Yes everything happens for a reason, but if you make yourself empty just to keep someone full, who are you really helping?

Be gentle with your broken heart, dear one. For it knows not that one day it shall be whole again. Take this time to process the hurt, let it consume your entire being. For living for someone else will suck the life out of you without your knowledge. One day when you have no more left to give to their greed, they will get up and leave your empty soul there where you placed it.

Do not cry, do not turn harsh.

Just breathe and go into the night with your head held high. For you know that loving someone so much who does not love you, was still the best thing you could have hoped for. Even though right now it hurts, relish in the fact that you sweet one, were so in love, you halved yourself just to make them feel full.

One should never have to cut themselves into slices to be loved. If you ever find yourself holding a knife towards your own heart, stop and remember that love grows us. It should never diminish us.

Wish them well, even though they may not wish it back. For you my darling, are a compassionate lover who mourns the loss of a partner but can smile knowing you gave them more than they ever deserved.

And if one day you find yourself in their eyes again, remember that you are too much of a universe to fit in the palms of one that cannot see their own stars shining.
