It’s always been the same story with you.
Someone comes along magically some day, you start talking to them.
You end up spilling your whole heart to them. You end up making them your world.
You trust them with everything, share your dreams, ambitions and tell them your deepest desires.
You tell them about the smallest things that bring you happiness, you tell them your biggest fears.
You laugh with them, you even cry in front of them.
You share more than you should, invest more time than you have, give more than you’ll ever receive.
All of it to have your face slammed into all the warning signs you ignored before.
So, you wonder if there’s something wrong with you. I mean – that’s the only explanation, right?
You’re tired of being disappointed every time you put your faith in people.
You’re tired of feeling stupid every time loved ones deceive and betray you.
You are amused to see that the wise ones, the learned ones, are those who run away citing lame excuses, ignore, dismiss, sideline, replace and discard you, when you are no longer needed.
You feel ironic that the liberal ones who advocate unconditional love, acceptance are the ones who take sides and judge you even without listening to your side of the story.
You’re hurt that you will only continue to be portrayed in bad light, be bullied and crushed when you try to confront or even strike a conversation.
You shudder at the thought that they have turned your entire world upside down and have made your heaven a painful hell.
You’re tired of your phone ringing only when someone needs you, you know that you are “blocked”, “unfriended” or “restricted” otherwise.
And you know, even if it’s the middle of the night, you’ll pick up their call and go out of your way to help them, and the next morning, you’ll still greet them with a smile.
You’ll still praise their sense of humour and talk about all the fun times you had.
You’ll still look for the good in them.
You’ll still wish only the best for them.
Your own people call you stupid because trusting comes easily to you.
Your loved ones, however tell you bizarre lies often and kick you where it hurts the hardest.
They go out of their way to betray you – and you continue to believe their stories and the lies.
Why won’t you? You love them with all you have, after all.
But people who trust are not stupid, you know?
You just think everyone has a good heart because you are good to others...
And you will continue to trust, have faith and continue to love...
