To Love Me

 To love me

To love me is to know my pain

To love me is to know my sadness

To love me is to know my shame

To love me is to know I can't be tamed 

You say you love me

Are you prepared

Prepared for the break

Prepared for the self-hate

Prepared for the self medicate

Prepared for the self-sabotage

I am my own worse enemy but as much as I hate myself I'll love you the most.

I'll give you everything because even when there's nothing left for me I'll use it to love you. 

To love me is to be prepared to replace all the love I give away. 

Are you up for the task?
