too little too late

that's like when you always wanted something and whomever it was never gave it, refused to give it even when you asked, hinted, begged, cried.

even when you logically explained how one day it would be too late because there's only so much you can handle of them not giving you what you know they can, but refuse to. they were still like, nah you exaggerate, it will never be too late for me to realise you had a point all along, not believing you can predict how you'll feel in the future.

and then when that day comes they're thinking, what's this new thing you're doing were you're acting like it's too little, too late?

in your mind you knew this day would come. you knew you would reach the point of no return. you would reach the point where you just didn't feel the same, want the same, care the same.

now they're attempting to be nice and you're like, eh... don't care, doesn't feel all that good this many years too late.

you wish it did because it's what you always wanted. now it's finally here you feel like it's hard to believe. hard to trust. hard to care. hard to feel the same in return.

they say they've finally realised you were right, they needed to appreciate what they had because now they realise how good you are.

your stuck wondering how you're going to turn your feelings around. believe them. trust they're telling the truth.

but the biggest hurdle is overcoming all the stuff they made you believe about yourself, about your relationship with them. now you're stuck trying to restructure your heart.
