A Healthy Relationship Is


A Healthy Relationship Is

When y'all argue over Pineapple on Pizza

Or when y'all fight for the TV remote

Or when y'all ask a question

Devoid of any judgement 

 

A Healthy Relationship Is

When they ask "How Was Your Day?" 

When they are an ocean away and call to say "Hey"

When they remind you of your value

 

A Healthy Relationship Is 

When you slip up

When you mourn at your shortcomings 

When you question your self-worth

 

A Healthy Relationship Is

Sacrificing for others

Giving up your time 

Giving up your personal needs to satisfy 

The status quo of your relationship 

 

A Healthy Relationship Is

Communication at its finest,

So y'all can look past your failures

So y'all can progressive as individuals
