I return to you your crumbs of love
Crumbs
I return to you your crumbs of love
For I can no longer bear the pain
Of holding onto something that’s not enough
My heart is heavy with this refrain
I gave my all, but it was not reciprocated
I poured my love, but it was not appreciated
Now I gather the pieces of my shattered heart
And hand them back, for it’s time to depart
You see, I used to feel guilty for feeling down
For not being able to keep a smile, not even a frown
But now I realize, it’s not my fault
For I deserve a love that’s not so hard to halt
I return to you your crumbs of love
For I deserve a feast, not just a crumb
I deserve a love that’s pure and true
Not one that leaves me feeling so numb
And as I hand them back, I feel a sense of relief
For I know I deserve a love that’s beyond belief
I release myself from this endless cycle
And take back my heart, for it’s time to be vital
But there’s one more thing that weighs on my mind
For I can’t help but feel guilty for being unkind
To my business, my passion, my source of pride
For not giving it my all, I cannot hide
But I’ve learned that self-care is not a crime
And sometimes, we need to take some time
To heal our hearts, to mend our souls
For only then can we truly reach our goals
So I return to you your crumbs of love
And I also forgive myself for not being enough
For I am worthy of a love that’s true
And I will give my all, in all that I do.
