Just Keep Your Love Away

I sit here in my car puzzled by the notion that people can say they love you and yet hurt you deeply! I mean beyond natural hurt that comes because we are imperfect, but I mean intentional, relentless, and uncaring hurt that people bring to you. They are so hateful and just seem to take pleasure in seeing you in pain!

Even worse are the more subtle people who smile in your face! They are very crafty and hurt you in small doses! They don't do well when confronted of their wrong or they flip the script and try to make you feel like you deserve what they have done to you! I feel that they are the true authors of cruelty and manipulation and they do their dirt all in the name of love!

At first I used to have such anger towards those who are like this, but now I pity them. I feel sorry that the only way they can feel better about their lives is to make someone else feel miserable.

The saddest part about it all is that there is one way to cure it and that's to love them and to forgive them!

In the meantime keep your kind of love away from me and the ones I love!
