Dear You Who Said "It's Okay" Too Many Times,
#TheSearchForLove
You thought love meant endurance.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGsBQJ5MuX
That to be chosen, you had to tolerate the things that hurt.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXco3eSMEO
That staying quiet, staying soft, staying "understanding"32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoMZ4xcQfu
would make them stay too.
You weren't weak for forgiving them.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3t2q5ApFzu
You were just hungry for love.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4MwoKn79L
And they knew it.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5TKgZyX8K
They fed off that hunger,32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DazRRnKC2
taking more than they ever gave back.
Each time you said "I'm okay,"32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOBhiiJ6UQ
you swallowed a truth that should've been spoken.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg4ogTCmPk
Each time you forgave without receiving even a hint of remorse,32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZWl38SfWc
you abandoned a part of yourself32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99egaHmiRB
just to be seen, just to be kept.
But real love doesn't ask you to bleed32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vrZLgoYCy
to earn someone's warmth.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHsxY8z9fw
It doesn't demand your silence32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdgDIMpLGE
just to keep the peace.
You weren't dramatic.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl30CGeXH9K
You weren't too much.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡur76WlP74i
You were just a girl who wanted to be loved the right way32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgwCIq6eaQ
but didn't yet know what the right way looked like.
Let me tell you now:32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQbV17EOSl
Love doesn't make you choose between being respected32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme9RKnMSZ1
and being held.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABncLa7ia6
It doesn't turn your softness into a weapon against you.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5I4x54Y18
It doesn't make you feel guilty for hurting.
You can forgive, yes—32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTL2HWuK0D
but not at the cost of losing yourself.
The girl who kept giving chances...32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqns98FhbLb
She didn't fail.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtEr1dNpDx
She just hadn't learned yet32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdmMxrL9pT
that being loved shouldn't feel like begging.
I see you.32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLv94lYFTZ
And I want you to know—32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSezO7ngne
you never had to try that hard to be worthy.
You always were.
With all the love you deserved back then,32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYhCWGV3no
