Because love is a sacrifice, I decide to give all of myself. I will bear the agony, I will hold every word in, bite my tongue. I will give and give and give my love until the last breath escapes my lungs and I will ask for nothing else. I will never become a problem, a nuisance. I’ll keep everything locked away, a feral animal thrashing in a cage.
Because it’s too much. It will always be too much. And I would flood the city if I ever lose my grip.
