I don’t wanna allow myself to open up these days because people are temporary… Whether I am the one walking away or not. Shit never lasts. How do you tell people you see them as phases. The reason you won’t express your deepest thoughts is because in the back of your mind, one day they will leave. Or even worse, you might be the one walking away; being responsible for the pain of another. Maybe eventually you will grow so far apart that you don’t even remember each others faces. I don’t think loving someone is hard. The hard part is showing up. I thinking the loudest act of love is showing that you are capable of being present. Love. An action word. Love is something that can’t just be said, but has to be shown in order for it to have meaning. The least you can do during your short stay in someone's life, is make sure you have the best time possible. Focus, Honesty, Effort, Laughter. Don’t be afraid of giving someone these things, because you think that it is some sort of agreement that you are now stuck. You always have a choice. By giving the best version of yourself to people, one day you might be lucky enough to create something worth sticking around for.
