You talk like being in love controls you.
Love is not meant to control you.
Love is here,
To show us radical acceptance.
To be trusted to be free, and
To have the freedom to trust.
Love shouldn't pull you away from yourself.
Love should bring you closer to you.
Are you afraid when you talk to them?
Or do you feel calm,
Well articulated,
At ease, with them?
Or do you feel anxious?
Do you feel like everything you say,
No matter what about,
Is always misunderstood?
Do you get embarrassed?
Frustrated?
Do you feel unseen?
This is because,
You are residing,
In a place
That is much too far
From you.
Sometimes, we have to walk away
From the things we love most, because...
By staying,
We are not listening to ourselves.
By staying,
We are not honouring ourselves.
By staying, we are saying:
"๐'๐ท๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ง๐ต ๐ข๐ญ๐ญ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ฎ๐บ๐ด๐ฆ๐ญ๐ง ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ด๐ฐ ๐ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ถ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ."
...
All I ask is that this time,
You choose yourself.
So that the love that is meant for you,
Can find you.
