Love yourself (you must love you)

A healthy relationship,

A starting point,

In all meaning, I fail to be

Unhealthy, drip drop dee

 

To what I see,

To what I read,

And to what I experienced,

A mistake can never be rewind

 

If one can't handle or understand,

It may break and fall

Leading to arguments 

And dissatisfactions

 

 

Communication

Understanding

Trustability 

Similarities

Patience

Support

All to what it means to me

To what I witness,

To what I hear,

Communication is the least present

 

People fail to do so,

Failed to keep up,

But why? What's the reason?

What's holding them back?

 

Is love simply a game of token?

 

Because I love me,

I will remember

Because I love me,

Those words matter to my healthy relationship

 

But before,

None matters to me

Healthy or not,

I wasn't respecting the girl in front of the mirror staring back at me

 

I disobey the words given by my parents

Being a young girl,

I jumped to conclusion

Rather than thinking of what was best for me

 

I wanted to follow along

Just like a foolish child

Yes, I do regret the steps I made

I should have listened

 

Because I love you,

I should learn to love myself

 

Because I love the girl standing in front of me,

I will respect her first

 

Because I love the girl staring back at me,

I will slowly appreciate little by little with time

 

Because I love me,

My mistakes are made to be fix

 

Because I love you,

I must respect you,

Understand you,

and come to communicate when there are misunderstandings going on

between to the two of us

 

Because a healthy relationship is not fast pace...

 

To have a healthy relationship,

You must take everything in baby steps

 

But before all,

you must love you

I must love me

to be able to understand, "What is a healthy relationship?" is

 

It's not that simple to love

It starts with you

It starts with me

Because I love you

 

I must love me as well
