Hold Them Closer


Relationships are complicated and beautiful, Friends, family, and even a loved one.

It all starts with the first meeting.

Building on trust and slowly you enjoy the person’s presence, their flaws, everything that makes them…. Them.

You start to smile more, laugh, and goof around more just being around them.

They’re perfect, they're helping you slowly forget the buzzing insecurities that has been following you around.

Reminding you that you are perfect just the way you are.

Sometime it can be difficult when there is a bump along the road during this process, but doesn’t it make it all worth it?

Thinking back, I’ve always thought that I didn’t regret meeting everyone and wouldn't trade them for anything in the world.

I keep everyone close to me #becauseILoveYou should be about to have a deeper connection with another and able have fun, smiling while

being with the people around you. Do you hold your loved ones close?
