my love
my love is too much sometimes
at times it can be overflowing
people have come and gone in my life
at first I thought maybe I loved them too hard
or the way I love in general is too much
should I change the way I love people
love a little less
withdraw my affection
become distant
but then I realized that if I do that it will end up confusing everyone
after all everyone knows that I’m an affectionate person
I go above and beyond
affectionate wise
little gestures that I do
to make them happy
but why would I embrace a foreign feeling
just because people distance themselves from it
to make that person happy
it would be changing the way I love completely
and if we’re being honest with each other
I’m used to loving too much
so I’ll continue loving people too much
my love might be too much for some people
but I know one day it will be just enough for someone
that’s why I won’t change the way I love a person
