I love you.
These 3 simple words have so much meaning to them. These 3 simple words mean a lot to me. But sometimes I wonder...
Does anyone actually love me?
I know I'm not the easiest person to get along with sometimes. But I have a strong heart. When I care about someone, I hope they know it. Because I know I don't always show it like I should.
It hurts when you know your not loved. But it seems like it hurts more when you don't know whether or not you're loved. When you don't know, you're just left guessing. And you may never know the answer.
My ankles hurt now, but it's a good hurt. It reminds me that I can still feel. It will heal, unlike the mental wounds. I'm taking a break for now, but later I'll probably cut more. The pain helps. I don't know why. It just does.
My heart is pounding. I feel nervous, scared even. Scared that those I love don't love me back. In the back of my mind I know I am, I think. I just need a reminder sometimes.
These 3 simple words can mean so much. I don't say them often but when I do, I mean it. And I really hope that when someone says it to me, they mean it too.
I love you.
