disguised selfishness

You deserve better


is the

historical and hysterical line


uttered by

mothers

who can’t let go of sons,


fathers

who can’t let go of daughters,

lovers

who can’t let go of lovers.

It’s the self justifying

excuse used by all kinds of people

who can’t face the real truth:

"no one else is good enough for you because I want you for myself."
