Chapter 111 - POEM 111 : Don’t Let Anyone Love You Less Than I Do

Don't settle

for half-hearted love.

Not now.

Not ever.

Because once you've felt

the way I look at you—

like you're not just beautiful,

but necessary—

you won't be able

to go back

to something ordinary.

And I don't say that

out of pride.

I say that

out of truth.

Because I don't just see you—

I understand you.

The way your silence changes

when you're upset.

The way your voice softens

when you care too much.

The way you pretend

to be strong

when you really just want

someone to stay.

I see all of it.

And I stay.

So no—

don't let anyone

hold you

without meaning it.

Don't let anyone

kiss you

without feeling it.

Don't let anyone

love you

like it's temporary.

Because I don't.

When I say I want you—

I mean I want

your chaos,

your calm,

your good days,

your worst nights.

Everything.

And yes…

maybe I get a little possessive

sometimes—

not because I want to control you,

but because I know

what you're worth.

And I refuse

to let you forget it.

So if you ever feel

like you're not enough—

come to me.

I'll remind you

exactly

how wrong you are.
