I finally figured it out. You can't love me, no matter how hard you try, if you don't know how to love yourself. And no, I don't want to change your essence..
that's what I fell in love with.
But I also can't stay watching how you destroy yourself, how you deceive yourself, and how you justify everything that hurts you.
You're not okay.
And it's okay not to be...
but it's also okay to accept help.
I love you, and I probably always will.
But I can't stand by your side if it means sinking with you.
Imma be, yep..
but from another place.
Up, where there is still light,
reaching out in case you ever decide to get out of there.
Because you're not alone.
You have never been.
But you gotta want to do it yourself.
Nothing is forever, not even this pain you cling to.
And when you're ready...
when you really want to get out,
i'll be there for you.
