Your heart failed you even since it's your greatest prize* *You've come to accept heartbreak like Nigerians have no choice with Rice* *You don't want to think far ahead because there is nothing inspiring* *Everything looks bright but with burnt dreams and heartbreaks* *This wasn't the life you dreamed of while growing up* *You wished you'd get rich and be in love but you are not even close* *Fake it till you make it? You are not even close with your striking pose* *You lost hope in love, even if they splash you with it like a water hose* *Oh! You wish you can detect those heartbreakers from afar with your nose* *At least your heart failed, you hoped your nose wouldn't* *There is still that faint hope that love can reignite in your heart* *But how do you know who is who, with all the people here on earth?* *Love didn't hurt you, insensitive humans did* *It's hard to look far ahead when uncertainty looms in the air* *It's not easy to find love, not as easy as finding your slipper's pair* *You always mutter this underneath your breath* *Love will find you again just when you are not looking* *Maybe we meet a few bad people in life* *So when we meet the good ones we can appreciate them* *All you've gone through are experiences that led you here* *You will heal, so don't force the process* *Only this way can you attain that success* *Take time to work on yourself, see it as a recess* *But never forget that the best and sweetest of things attracts* *A lot of people will come along the way to confuse you* *Still, watch their content before feeding your soul with it* *It's just a phase, don't make a permanent decision over a temporary situation* *Love will find you yet again and it would feel like summertime* *Take your time as you go through your healing process*

We heal differently and as shocking as it might sound, some take a shorter time to heal which would make you doubt if they were ever in love in the first place and for others, it might take longer and this can make them doubt if love ever existed. A lot of people had their hearts broken by those they least expected it from. They have invested too much of their time and energy, resources even and loyalty only to have it shoved right back in their face. It's a terrible feeling because it makes you doubt yourself - your choices and your sense of worth. You lose value for most things because you have this laid back attitude that things might not work quite as you had hoped. This has made a lot of people shy back from giving their heart to things, even mere friendship because they see it as a waste of time since their efforts won't be appreciated, they'd say. Love is a powerful thing and many people have used it as a weapon too but it doesn't mean that love is cruel. Anything we do in the name of another thing is our responsibility. A man who is in love, shows affection to his partner, that's who he is but someone who acts the opposite, that's who he is as well. We seem to take the focus off the person who hurt us and generally assumes that love is at fault. Everything in life goes through a process and the hurt you are feeling as well would have to go through a process. It might take others years and others months, but one thing should be true, we should never close the door to our heart and throw the key away. You can close it temporarily until you are sure of who you want to let in but don't ever close your heart to true love because it would still find you but you have to heal first. Most people try to force relationships when they haven't healed. They want to use another human as a body shield so they can get over their hurts but it's only going to be temporary because they would soon see that the hurt goes deeper than they thought. It's more obvious because who you are with would see your lack of effort and commitment to the relationship and that's because you haven't healed. Not healing yet means you would hold back, judge everything, assume everything and you might even invent scenarios that never existed in your head because the events of your last heartbreak are still playing in your mind. Stop forcing things and allow your heart to heal first. You will know you haven't healed fully when you can't talk about your ex without resentment. You will know you haven't moved on when you are holding back and walking on eggshells over something another person hasn't even done. It doesn't mean you don't have to evaluate situations but you have to judge every person based on what they have done and not based on what you think they might do. You can address situations ahead of time but you don't use past situations to judge those who knew nothing about it. Healing is a process...take your time. There is no attendance to be marked, stop yielding to pressure. Allow time to naturally heal you...for as long as it takes. *Thank you for your time.* Kindly follow me on **Noise.Cash**...
