it’s okay


♥️

it’s okay if you’re sad. 
i still want to spend time with you. 
you don’t have to pretend you’re not sad. 
you don’t have to not cry if suddenly you feel like crying. 
you don’t have to push your feelings down inside you so they don’t show. 
i know they are part of you
and i always want to know them better. 

it’s okay if you’re mad. 
i still want to talk to you and listen to you.
you don’t have to sugar coat the words you need to get out.
you don’t have to say things are okay that aren’t okay.
you don’t have to accept what isn’t acceptable
and keep quiet about it out of fear.
i’m right here, regardless.  

it’s okay if you’re stressed. 
i still want to see you.
you don’t have to carry your worries on your own.
you don’t have to weigh your burdens and your blessings
and be afraid that your stress invalidates your gratitude.
it doesn’t.
you don’t have to doubt your faith, or me, or you.
i believe in you. 

the thing is, it’s okay if you’re not your best all the time.  
i still want to hold your hand and share this life with you
and remind you that my love for you
is never
going anywhere

without you.
