Maybe
Maybe
maybe I'm not so broken after all
maybe I just needed someone patient
maybe I needed someone who respected when I say
not yet
but why does showing affection in public feel like I'm an elephant among ants?
Why do I feel slimy for loving someone?
Why am I embarrassed to show emotion?
Don't get me wrong
the urges to end love still come
like waves crashing onto small crabs
they feel very real
but that feeling isn't intuition
its fear.
fear has been a thief
stolen goods like connection, support, and family
It stops now
Maybe just maybe
I can start living.
