I once..❤️ I once dreamed of being someone's girlfriend, of having a future with love in it, but now l can't even picture myself there anymore. I don't imagine wedding dresses or walking down an aisle like I used to. Somewhere along the way, the hurt changed me. Giving my heart and watching it break over and over made me tired. Now being alone feels safer than hoping someone will love me the way I always wanted, because hoping started to hurt more than the loneliness..❤️
