How many people
are you going to claim to love,
Before you realise you actually
dont care about at least 40% of them.
Dont throw words around
because you have the ability of speech
Let something remain sacred, subtle
Pure, even.
Don't throw words around because you are afraid
that somewhere out there is a person who dislikes you.
People dislike people. It's how they work.
Our differences cause us to find others irritating, (overly)dramatic, stupid.
It's human. Nobody is perfect in anyone's eyes.
You're flawed. Probably insecure at times. Like everyone else.
Don't ruin a word like 'love' for a reason like that.
Because there will be a special few, who you actually love
Who will actually catch you when you fall
Who genuinely like you for Who You Are.
Save the big words for them. Make it mean something.
And for everyone else, just leave it at 'like.' That's enough.
I love you. Promise.
