Love her through the leaving

LOVE HER THROUGH THE LEAVING

If she’s not your forever, love her through the leaving.

Sometimes love can’t promise forever.

Even if I wish it that way.

But she is your best friend.

Before everything got hard.

She chose you.

She trusted you with her heart.

Love isn’t easy. It takes commitment.

And even with that…

Sometimes love still hurts.

Together, hand in hand,

You embraced your future together.

But love isn’t a guarantee,

And forever isn’t promised

even if once believed it was.

I was a young woman

Before I was your mom.

She gave you years, love her through the leaving.

Don’t make the years a loss. She loved you through neglect.

You learned together, with your best friend.

The forever might have went away,

But the love for the friend is still there.

The years had meaning. . Don’t make them feel like nothing.

Don’t neglect the woman standing there, Just to make leaving easier. The life you shared will always be there.

Love her through the leaving.

Love her for the years she gave you.

Love her for the girl who chose you

When she had her whole life ahead of her and still chose you.

Love leaves its mark on our hearts.

It never really goes away.

It becomes part of who we are.

And both of you will carry

A piece of each other

For the rest of your lives.

So don’t become mean.

Don’t become cruel

To the woman who loved out of everyone else in this world.

Your best friend is still right there.

Someone out there

Is waiting to give her Love that feels like

The whole damn world stopped

Just for her.

I was a young woman

Before I was your mom.

Maybe her forever

Is somewhere she haven’t been yet.

But wherever it is,

I hope it shows her the love she deserves the kind that never makes her question the kind that reminds her everyday that she is his world*, I can’t-believe-I-found-you* kind of love.

The reach-for-you-in-my-sleep.

The kinda of love that looks across a crowded room

And still only sees her.

Leaving doesn’t mean forgetting the years.

It means two people once thought they were each others forever. There is no right or wrong in that. And the love doesn’t disappear when the forever has left.

love each other

through the leaving.
