when someone makes the decision to throw themselves into a dark sea, two actions are at hand. you let them be in hopes they swim to shore eventually or you put on a life vest and toss yourself overboard with. most put their happiness and sanity first which is completely understandable. i don’t have an option. when someone is my happiness and jumps overboard my body could stay all it wants but they took my heart over with them. i have a commitment and no matter what the outcome turns out to be i’m jumping in that water. you don’t leave when times are rough and not understandable, you can’t sit on shore and get recognition for just being on stand by. you almost drown yourself. but you have an obligation whether they ask you to or not your judgement is the decider. the highlighted reel is not reality it’s the behind the scenes that are the bold truth. if it’s this hard to be just the sidekick i could only imagine what it’s like being the victim. i guess its all about not giving up even when you’re walking the plank for someone else. as long as they’re worth it you’re making the right choice, and if it turns out not in your favor you can at least walk away knowing you were a badass person for sticking by someones side as long as you could or as long as they let you. so night y’all imma go throw mahself off a boat nao zZZzZzZz
it’s 6 am and i’m drowsy.
i run my fingers from your tailbone
to the nape of your neck.
i put my hands through your hair.
slip my leg under yours.
you whisper me you love me
and i think of the several hours
we just spent entwined
before the sleep pulled us
to opposite ends of the bed.
i want to say i missed you
but i stop myself.
my leg is under yours.
i whisper that i love you too.
my leg is under yours
and that’s more than enough.
more than enough.
