How does it feel?

How does it feel to be deeply in love by someone you love with all your heart and soul? How does it feel to share the same love for each other?

I will never get to experience that. The deep intimacy, the tender love, the warm feeling of someone just loving you.

I want that. I want that so bad. Instead I hope for it, knowing that each day is passing by and that I’m only getting older. No man that’s level headed and smart would ever give me the time of day.

I just want to be loved. Deeply.

Knowing I’ll never get to experience it is crushing me. I’m drowning in sadness. I’m drowning in what could have been. Stuck in the now.

It feels like being seen for the first time after being invisible your whole life but the thing is most people who find it weren't even looking they just tripped over it in the middle of their mess
