“Nothing protects the heart like patience.
Don’t get your hopes up too fast.
Don’t let your fears speak too loud.
Don’t give your doubts too much time.
Not everybody is built to handle the rough times.
Can’t be surprised when you fall off with certain people.
Few people understand what it means to really be there for somebody.
And that’s the roughest part about being on a journey,
You realize the main ones that said they’ll ride,
are the first to fall off.
People make promises when the sun is shining
and make excuses when the storm comes.
That’s why I’m always thankful for the rain…
it washes away the unnecessary.
The reality is, you could be amazing, genuine, and sincere
but still be overlooked. Because honestly, people don’t want something real anymore,
they just want reasons to complain and excuses to avoid. Having a good thing is so hard because meeting a strong person is so rare.
So I’ve learned to respect when people run from me,
I realize my kind of love ain’t for everybody.
I’m at peace with that.”
