If I could make it better, I would.
I would swallow the sun and breathe it straight into your heart if it meant you'd feel warm again.
I would plant a beautiful garden deep inside your soul if it meant you'd blossom there.
I would pull myself apart, jagged bone and soft skin if it meant I could find the right pieces to put you back together again.
I would. Believe me, I would.
But I can't.
For I learned time and time again that human beings cannot be saved, or fixed, or grown by others.
They can only be loved.
So I will love you, and I will love you well.
I will love you on days your laughter meets your eyes, and I will love you just as much when it does not.
I will love you on days when you are full of light, and I will love you just as much when you're weighed down with trouble.
I will love you through your healing, and I will love you just as much through your hurt.
I will love you through your peace, and I will love you just as much through your chaos.
I will love you when you love yourself, and I will love you just as much when you don't.
What I refuse to do is to fall in love with the idea of who you can be if I were to nip and tuck and patch and sew you into someone else.
I won't throw a blanket over your baggage to only focus on the prettiest parts of you.
I refuse to love you in halves.
So show me where you thrive, and I will love you there.
Show me where you break, and I will love you there.
Show me where you hope, and I will love you there.
Show me where you doubt, and I will love you there.
Show me where you hide, and I will love you there.
Show me your open heart, frayed and beating in its decay and in it's growth, and I will love it well.
