I cannot promise
passion will not
lead to pain.
I cannot tell you
I will never
make mistakes.
But I can say
that who you are
won’t make me run away.
I can handle you;
I see the brokenness
and when I do
I just want to
hold you tighter.
Are you going to
give up
before you even try?
I am strong enough
to keep you together,
I am strong enough
for the both of us.
Don’t you dare think
you can fail me.
I care about you too much
to let you go
without a fight.
Stop being so afraid
of love.
It’s brutal and raw
but it cures all.
It’s worth it.
That I can promise you.
