We are humans. We are capable of loving. And we are able to be loved.
However, We can't force it. Rather; Embrace it.
You are scared of gifting a part of you to someone else. A piece of your soul you do not get back. Because you're not supposed to. Give as much of your caring self to others as you can.
Let people in. Allow them the chance to know you, Show them your undomesticated imagination, Your vivid thoughts. Your loving heart. Love as many people as you want to. Be loved as much as you want to. Love the way you would want to be. Allow others to break your guards, stumble over the edges, and fall in love with every possible thing about you. Because in the blink of an eye, Your chances will have turned to regrets. All of the love you wished and hoped to give, and all the people you chose to love, Could be gone. At any Given Moment.
