LOVING ME

Loving me

Do you remember the last time you loved you?

Pause.

Invite your emotions to join in.

Bring out the uncompromising truth.

And when it all spills out you’ll see that what the others are willing

to give you

is not always what you craved for.

It’s not what you look like to you but what you look like to them.

Harsh realities emerge. Enlightening.

Challenging.

Are you sure of what it is to be loved?

Is it the same as what how you’d like to be loved?
