Boys Vs Men

It’s hard to believe someone when they say they want you when you’ve spent your whole life knowing your an object for sex.
It’s not easy to give yourself so freely in the way that you want to when all guys do is talk about your body like it’s a toy.
To know that you’ve been cheated on mentally, and physically is like having a joker play you in poker and winning a bet.
If a man is really into you you’ll know when he stops playing the role of a boy.
/Love/ is not a game to be played.
/Love/ is a truth that has been given to us to set us free.
It’s a kryptonite that glows a northern light green.
It is sad to realize that no matter how hard you try to keep your identity, most men will always want the one thing you’re afraid to give the most. Whether that be your heart, money, sex, or soul. Now this is a real issue to those who think it is not.
Open your eyes and listen with your mind to the ghosts living in the dark.
Take gentle steps in the hope that you receive everything you have yearned for in a wrinkle of time and be satisfied with what you end up with because /baby/ it’s all you’ve got.
Frankly the road is coming to an end at some distance but you shouldn’t put pressure on the trigger if there’s no other road to shoot your shot.
Choose the love you love the most.
Love the life you know you deserve.
Choose the one who respects your goals.
Respect the life you have put on preserve.
