accept love

“Cause I love me, I love me enough for the both of us
That’s why you trust me, I know you’ve been through more than most of us
So what are you? What are you, what are you so afraid of?
Darling you, you give but you cannot take love” -drake/jhene aiko (From Time)

Honestly I’ve been the person to fully give so much to where I never got anything back. Its good to show love, but realize when its being reciprocated. The only reason why someone doesn’t show you love, but can’t let you go. Is because they don’t know love. How can someone express something they don’t know or never experienced? To way street, 50/50, and mutual love is needed in any relationship. Fear can hinder someone as well to where you have been hurt so bad that its hard to trust or love again. Who likes the constant cycle of getting to know someone, falling in love, and breaking up? I think relationships are work, but it takes both parties to put forth effort. Never be afraid of love. Its not love that causes the issues and problems its the individual. Fearing the inevitable will only bind you to seclude you from living. Take a risk and dive into the unknown. Give but accept love in its truest form..
