There’s something so poignant about this line: “…willing to endure the pain
if that love doesn’t last.” whether its referring to a love who moves on to someone else or referring to a love who dies.
I wish this could be handed as a mannual to those who say they love you.
And later transform in to rejected stalkers or unleash violence on a woman because they did not get her. I truly understand this vulnerability as the biggest strength.
That is so true. I like to think love doesn’t doubt. I have to remind myself of this if my mind starts to ramble. Then it’s a matter of courage to proceed.

this feels like something I was trying to get across today and you do it so well, so briefly! Love it!

Exactly. No matter what happens, it’s lost. And that has to be something you’re willing to risk at the start.
