You Can’t Rush Me Into Loving You

I cannot try to love you. I cannot make my body change its path or my heartbeat shift it’s rhythm. I cannot make my mind think things that it does not yet think; if I do this, I’ll only end up worrying and pushing you away. Please let my soul find the way on its own, let my heart be its own guide.

If You Love Me, You’ll Let Me Be Strong

If you want to love me, let me be strong. Let me stand on my own two feet and make my own decisions. Let me fight my own battles and raise my own voice. Let me speak for myself and take control of my own situations.
