"“My total conscious search in life has been for a new seeing, a new image, a new insight.<br /> This search not only includes the object, but the in-between place. The dawns and the dusks.<br /> The objective world, the heavenly spheres, the places between the land and sea...Whatever<br /> creation man invents, the image can be found in nature. We cannot see anything that we<br /> are not already aware of. The inner, the outer = One.” -Louise Nevelson


I was just a piece in this game you're playing. But the thing is, you're playing against yourself. And soon all the pieces in the game will be gone, and you'll be all alone with no one to love you. Only then, do I hope you'll think of me- the one who loved you first and the one would've loved you last. Maybe you'll come back to me and maybe I'll let you because maybe then you'll realize that people aren't pieces in a game, we're real and we have feelings and don't deserve to be dehumanized.

If you've ever been played, you know how it feels. But don't start thinking you deserved it. No one deserves to get played. You have great value- that person just couldn't see it.
