sometimes we put too much faith or necessity towards those we have feelings for. it's easy to think that their presence can dismiss the things that are unsightly or unfortunate in our lives. whether it's safety or stability we crave, it's hardly ever that simple. in reality, the person we care about can only love us back, while standing helpless in the erasure of our real problems. as powerful as love can be, some issues need a little more effort and an inner rehabilitation outside of someone else.
