The Lasting Joy of Love: Breaking Free from the Taker's Chains



Stop being so available to one who puts you last,
A person who takes you for granted, without care,
A relationship that never gives, but only takes,
A bond that with each passing day, slowly breaks,
It's time to reclaim your worth, your value, your life,
And break free from the chains of this strife.

The struggle can be tough, but don't be afraid to strive,
To be free of the one who sees you as last,
You deserve a partner who brings light to your life,
Someone who values and cherishes you with care,
A connection that builds, strengthens, and never breaks,
A love that gives as much as it takes.

It's time to stop giving to the one who always takes,
To break away from their grasp and start a new life,
To free yourself from the hurt that constantly breaks,
And find someone who will cherish you as first, not last,
A partner who will nurture and love you with care,
And show you the beauty of a fulfilling life.

With time, you'll discover the beauty of life,
The joy of giving to someone who reciprocates and takes,
Someone who will love, honor, and cherish with care,
And never treat you as an afterthought or last,
Someone who will build with you, never break,
And bring happiness, passion, and love into your life.

It's not easy to break free from the one who takes,
To stop being so available to one who sees you last,
But with time, you'll find love that brings life and care,
And discover the beauty of a fulfilling life that never breaks.

It's time to honor yourself and let go of the past,
To find someone who will value you and make love last,
To stop being so available to one who only takes.

You are worth more than being someone's last,
You deserve to be cherished and loved with care,
Don't settle for a life that constantly breaks,
But seek out a love that builds and never takes.

With every step forward, you'll break free from the pain,
And begin to discover the beauty of life once again,
Find joy in the moments and embrace the love that takes,
Hold onto the light that ignites and never fades.

Let go of the past and start a new chapter in your life,
Where love blooms and never breaks, and care runs rife,
And you never have to be someone's last,
Because you've found someone who values you and takes.

In this new love, you'll discover the power to take,
A step towards happiness and a life that never breaks,
A bond that strengthens with every act of care,
A love that sees you as first, never last.

So stop being so available to one who only takes,
And open your heart to a love that gives and makes,
A life filled with passion, love, and care,
Where nothing can break the bond that love creates.

In conclusion , you are worth more than being someone's last,
Find a love that values you and never takes,
One that builds, strengthens, and cherishes with care,
A love that brings joy to every moment of your life.
