i will never understand why you were like that to me when i was full of love for you. i gave you patience and kindness without holding back. i showed up for you even on days i felt empty and tired, hoping you would do the same for me. but somehow, the more i gave, the less you cared. maybe i was too available, or maybe i loved you louder than you deserved. still, i wasn't asking for much, just the same love back. and now i'm left wondering how something so genuine from me was met with something so careless from you.
