Don’t let your demons get in the way.

Months have gone by and there’s still no sign of you.

Maybe this wasn’t it for you. Maybe I’m not enough for you to face your demons and that’s not on me and that’s ok. Those are your battles, your fight that you need to do in order to move on in life.

I was or even still am ready to be by your side and listen to all the things that people are saying about you even though it won’t be easy.

I’m willing to be that pillar of confidence and solidarity that you need but I can’t push you into doing something that you’re not ready to do.

I can’t force you or talk you into loving and wanting me.

I know you already want and will love me beyond imagination but I can’t make you face your fears. That’s something you’ll have to do on your own, that’s your journey.

I still hear your voice echo in my head but none of this is on me. I tried and I’m still standing here but maybe I shouldn’t be.

The anticipation of love and affection shouldn’t feel heavy and that’s all I feel right now.

Maybe it’s time to let you go but I don’t want to and that’s the problem.

Please face your fears so you and we can build a life together.
