“ I promise to plant kisses like seeds on your body, so in time you can grow to love yourself as I love you. ”
Truth :)
Amendment to the last one: If you don’t leave him, I don’t care to hear about your problems. We’re friends and I want to help, but this is me helping. You haven’t left; that’s your problem…

I’ve never needed before. Or missed. Or waited. Or loved. Before her. I should’ve stayed. When the distance is done, I won’t leave again.

8 weeks. 8 weeks is the only solution. Wait and see. But, is that for real? Will this chaos mellow out in 8 weeks? I pray it will. Yes, me. Pray. I’m trying everything. Awful. Like eating two trays of Oreos in an hour, awful. Like hitting your head on the corner of a counter awful. Just…*sigh*

A young man was standing in the middle of the town proclaiming that he had the most beautiful heart in the whole valley. A large crowd gathered and they all admired his heart for it was perfect. There was not a mark or a flaw in it.
But an old man appeared at the front of the crowd and said,

I Don’t Know
This is somewhere I’ve never been, to my knowledge. I’ve only ever been unsure of myself, and dealt with people that have been too self-involved to divulge their self-doubt to me. I’ve never really had to reassure anyone but myself, to comfort anyone other than Nate. Besides the occasional “You can do it” to the compliment diggers, I have only ever been confronted with the difficulty of my own agendas. Few souls, if any, have approached me for deep, emotional turmoil needing ME as the confirmation of their ability to cope.
So now, I haven’t developed that ability, to help anyone through these sorts of trials. I can’t use the same techniques I did for myself, because asking someone to shut themselves down and forget all human interaction and be free from human emotion is harder to practice than to preach, and would contradict itself in the moment it is shared, would it not? I’ve never felt the level of trust I have felt here, in this moment, and I, unfortunately, don’t have words to say that everything will work out.
Guarantees are few and far between in today’s world. There are few things I will promise or be certain of. And so, promising that everything will work out, that moments like these - of pressure and shouldering a load too big for one human to carry - will pass, you would hope would be enough to release some pressure. I don’t make promises I can’t keep, but a promise like this doesn’t hold the same value as one in which I control the outcome.
I don’t know what to say or do to make things right, here. I don’t have the answer key with details on how I know this person will make it out alive. I don’t know why I know or how I know that this proverbial cancer that is eating them feels overwhelming, but will never overtake them.
I don’t know how I know, but I do. How do you say that to someone? How do you show them that you can, and more importantly will help them through a difficult time? I want to. Call it hero complex, call it OCD, whatever you call it, I want to help. If words aren’t enough, I’ll take action. Only, I don’t know the words or the actions necessary. How do I prove that I will help, and that the will make it through?
Because I will, and they will.
