on tiptoe

you can say i’m wrong
you can turn your back against me
but i am here to stay
— Everything I Need, Aquaman

: what type of girls do you like?

: isn’t it depend on feelings?

falling in love requires feeling;

staying in love requires work.

remember i said that

to like is a feeling,

to love is an ability?

because falling for you was a feeling,

but loving you is a choice i made,

regardless how much i have heard and seen.

you said it’s not going to be healthy for me.

well, you’re wrong.

because i love you,

i want to be better,

i want to be stronger.

i want to tiptoe high

and hug you so tight.

i want to catch you when you fall,

i want to be there for you

when you cannot take it anymore.

why don’t you do the same for me?

so that we will both be healthy.

it is not me or our relationship

that i wanted to be your priority,

it is you your very self

who should always be.
