Prena Poetry

you know, when we were younger and our hearts felt like it was forever going to belong to that one extraordinary person.

all the ways we thought we needed that perosn because we loved them too much—even if the hurt they gave was bigger than the love they could reciprocate. you know, it wasn’t love actually. it was attachments. the emotional dependency we longed from every friendship and person we thought we loved. the constant notion of wanting to fit in and not be forgotten.

and we learn too late that emotional dependency can be fatal. we learn too late that we can find love in the most ordinary things. and now look at so many of us, living in constant idea of loneliness or the feelings that our only companions are ignoring us. we give in so much to mend toxic relationships because we think we are helplessly in need of that friend or in love that partner.

but what we don’t understand is there is a enormous difference between ‘love’ and ‘attachment’.

i just hope you learn to differentiate them before it’s too late to save yourself from the choices you make .
