********
The deepest love of a human heart
Not everyone knows how to receive it.
Upon revealing your love,
An irresponsible lover becomes inebriated
So much so, your heart becomes ….auxiliary,
A spare wing for an airborne vessel. Why?
Because they have it. But of course, they want more.
They consider their next course of action
“When it comes to hearts —
I want a collection.”

Love is a powerful thing. Don’t be discouraged by those who don’t know how to receive your love. Thank them if they handle it poorly, because that only serves as further evidence of how it was not meant for them.
Will it hurt being rejected? Of course it will, no matter how zen you may be. But imagine being married to someone so romantically irresponsible as to hold your heart as a spare battery. Noone should have to go through that.
I’ve loved people who have let the high get to their head. Assuming my desire to keep the relationship afloat was because I had nowhere else to go. But the reality is when you love someone you do your best to steer everyone in the right direction; you don’t approach issues with pride. You only have to hope they trust you enough to listen to your counsel. And if they keep going towards a path of destruction? You simply say “Let your will be done”. After all, love should never be forced.
I love because I can, dear reader, not because I want to be loved back. If we take it a step further, I love because God has gifted me the ability to love. So I use it, fiercely. All that’s left is to determine whether my love is compatible with those around me lol Took two years of practice but that’s my philosophy with this at least.
Merry Christmas, dove ❤ I love you
