Stop right there

I need to agree that
when you're close to someone.

All your feelings will function
very well.

When you're really close,
you'll pay attention to
their words, their actions.

Even words wound your heart.
Actions give you cuts.

There's nothing wrong with that.

When you really appreciate someone,

you expect them to do the same.

When you really care about someone,

again, you expect them to do the same.

You know what,

the expectations are

the ones who will kill you.

Not your feelings.

You're a human,

you're allowed to have

feelings.

But don't expect too much.

You'll get hurt.

I've been there,

for countless times.

xoxo
