They tell you love is self sacrifice, they tell you the more you give of yourself the more you must love them. They make slavery look like romance, and I mean that in every way.
They make it look like the person who loves more is weak and taken advantage of, and the cold removed one getting all the advantages.
I think that’s because we got love all wrong, we forgot what it actually is.
I think love is the refusal to compromise oneself, what you need, what you want, who you are.
A valiant “No” in a sea of forced yeses.
Well I gave everything I had, I emptied myself for people who never had any intention of giving what I did.
And I believed myself mighty, I believed myself more loving, good, righteous.
And that’s exactly what they feed us.
“Enslave your soul and mind into a wrong idea of being a good person”
I’ve realized mother nature actually says: “Be valiantly seflish, conceited even, like the entire world revolves around you.
Because yours does.
And it isn’t until you taste true selfishness, soul deep, that you will have absolutely anything to offer.
Your illusions do nothing for this world, your slavery branded with righteousness wont do a damn thing.
Your whole “being in service” spiritual persona.
Not really doing much in reality.
I’ve chosen over and over again, the people who would shatter me.
Like a subconscious lure.
And I think we always do.
So that eventually, dead or alive, we see the truth.
Love was NEVER holding on when everything in me screamed let go.
Love was NEVER giving when everything in me told me to take.
Love was NEVER forgiving the unforgivable.
Love was NEVER holding my tongue.
Love was NEVER listening to there logic over my own feelings and instincts.
Love was NEVER at the cost of loving me.
See the thing is, if love is this kind and beautiful thing and never wants to hurt anyone ever at all and seeks to heal,
then why the fuck do you think love would be okay with you putting yourself through so much hell for it?
love wouldn’t want that for you.
So if it isn’t selfish, if it isn’t fully aligned with what you actually want, it’s not love.
its self betrayal all dressed in holy clothes.
