Loving someone is setting them free.
letting them go.
Allowing the falls and climbs to be achieved on their own.
I see you falling,
your heart following the steps of the unworthy.
And I stand by,
I watch.
Because I love you,
and if your heart chooses to go, I will follow.
I will stand by because some mistakes one needs to learn
by themselves.
But I can see my body fighting against it.
My heart knows that this will lead to danger,
my mind screams “NO”.
But I have no right to stop you.
I whisper my worries to you and let you learn how to fall.
