Push Me

I didn't know he was the wrong person until it was too late. Now I have been in this relationship over 5 years. Do I know myself? Do I know him? Am I wasting my time? I'm reading this poem and feel exactly like this is me. I ignored all the warning signs that he wasn't right for me, because by the time I started to notice, I had already fallen for him. Now the feelings aren't even there, yet I feel stuck. I do love him, and I feel stuck in love. What's the point? The reasons I thought he liked me, he finds overwhelming and even annoying at times. Although I suppose it is the same on my end regarding him. Perhaps we are falling out of love. Doesn't this happen with all relationships? But no, the right relationship would not feel like this. I know deep within my soul that something is off and it's only a matter of time before I do something about it.

I promised myself that I'd never fall for him. My heart assured me that everything was okay. My eyes showed me that he was Mr. Wrong. Then we started having long conversations until late in the night and laughing uncontrollably, and I knew I was doomed. He became my everything, though secretly he had me trapped. I found joy in his thoughts. I had fallen deeply for Mr. Wrong.
