feeling deeply does not make you weak. showing that you feel deeply does not make you weak. admitting that there are parts of you that still smell like men who walked into your life and laid their sadness on your palms and drove their empty fingers through your hair and kissed you with their mistakes and wrote you poems about nothing and snuggled up to you with their insecurities, does not make you weak. they weren’t the easiest to love, these men, they tried to comb out their problems over the sink of your happiness.
