When love meets fear

Love, I’m sorry if I ever made you feel not enough.

I’m sorry if my fears and wounds hurt you, even when you were already showing up.

My pain aren’t really about you, they’re echoes of my old scars. You’ve been patient. You’ve been so kind. You’ve reminded me what love looks like—calm, steady, and true.

Thank you for not giving up on us when I get overwhelmed and full of doubts.

I don’t want to push you away when I get scared. I want to grow beside you—even through the stormy days.

Thank you for loving me even when I’m unsure of how to love myself. I love everything about you, in all my imperfection, I love you and I’m always here thru our ups & downs.

Not perfect. But honest.

No matter the season I’ll always choose us, not just when it’s easy—but especially when it’s not.
