I Don't Deny That I Want Love

But I have a broken heart to fix.

Of course, I want love. I wouldn't have spent over a decade of my life loving others even though it was unrequited if I didn't. But while the desire is still here, I just don't have the energy for it anymore.

So, when I say that I want to date and give myself another chance, that is true. If I say I want to get married, that is also true.

But sometimes, I say that I want to be single until I die. That is also true — and it is the truth as I write this. I realized when I woke up that my heart is too broken for another love, so I should surround it with walls once again.

Love makes me cry at this point.
