Unconditionally
I want unconditional love
Is that wrong to want?
What if I can’t give it back, would you still love me?
Unconditionally?
What if I cheat on you in 10 years?
What if one day I don’t want to be monogamous?
Would you still love me then?
What if I never break my bad habits?
My anger gets worse and my words cut deeper?
What if I can’t love you the same way you love me?
What if I break down sometimes? My depression comes back. My insecurities creep in. My flaws shine. I’m not strong anymore.
Would you still love me unconditionally?
Would you help me get back up when I fall?
Would you guide me back to light when I’m stuck in the darkness?
Would you hold me when I’m crying and i don’t know why I’m crying?
Would you get the kids ready for school when I can’t get out of bed?
Would you cook when I can’t? Clean when I can’t?
Would you seek intimacy elsewhere when I can’t?
What if I can’t love you unconditionally?
What if I get angry one day and hit you? Would you forgive me? Would you hit me back or walk out? Would you just hug me until I calm down?
Can you truly love me unconditionally?
Can you?
Can you?!
Love me.
Unconditionally.
What if I’m not worth it?
I’m not worth it.

Author's Note
One night I felt vulnerable. I was meeting a man I haven’t seen in 7 years and this is how I felt the night before. I just wrote how I felt and kept everything in. There were no edits, just pure words my heart felt at 4am.

as a prose, it weighs a lot
as a rhyme, may be it needs another shot.
But then as you said "There were no edits, just pure"
something i agree as it spreads the lure.
Feelings unleashed mode on. Felt it.
Thanks for writing.
