I think I am always going to love harder than I will ever be loved in return.
I always have.
I loved you in ways I didn't even know. I loved you even when you no longer loved me. I loved you even when you were loving her. You were in her bed, in her heart, while I shivered in ours because you weren't there and mine was growing cold.
Thankfully, I no longer worry about your love. I told myself I was never going to love like that again. I built four walls around myself so that the love I wanted to give couldn't escape, and disappoint me again.
But now He's here. He broke down those walls and I let him. He came in and tore down the person I was because of the love you didn't give. He pried back open my heart and taught me to love again, to trust again. Sometimes I still worry that I am loving too hard again. But I stop, and take breath
Because loving too hard means I am loving him. And to love him is worth it all.
