How much can I love the one I love?
Enough to choose her every single time.
To hold her in silence when no one else did.
To give her joy, even if the world call it selfish.
I love myself more than anything—
so much that I never wait for permission
to taste happiness in its wildest form—
whether it’s praised or judged.
If your presence brings me joy,
I’ll treasure you like sunlight on my skin.
But the moment you bring thunder,
I’ll walk away without a second glance.
Not out of hate—
but out of love
for the girl who never deserves storms.
My love isn’t Romeo-Juliet.
I won’t die for absence,
I won’t disappear for someone else’s story.
I am not half of a whole.
I am the whole.
To love me is to stand beside me.
To leave me is to lose me.
And that, too, is love—
the kind that never begs, never breaks,
only blooms.
So ask me again—
how much can I love the one I love?
Enough to become the reason she survives.
Enough to stay.
Enough to walk away.
Enough to live
