Just because
you love the ocean
doesn’t mean
you have to drown in it.
You can admire its depth.
You can stand at the shore.
You can feel the waves
without losing yourself in them.
Loving something
doesn’t mean sacrificing
your ability to breathe.
Sometimes
the healthiest love
is knowing
how close you should stand.

i keep thinking about the line “how close do you stand to something that overwhelms you.” how did you figure out where that line is for you, or are you still figuring it out?
it's okay,im willing to drown
i stayed too long in something that felt like deep water, kept thinking love meant i had to keep swimming even when i was drowning in it. i lost parts of myself trying to stay.
