I cannot heal you, I can only love you.
Dont get me wrong, I want to.
I want to pull your head to my chest and hold you when you feel weak.
Jonathan Pendleton
I want to be the one to repair everybrokenwall of your heart, heal every bruise.
I want to give you strength in yourdarkness, hope where there is no light.
But I cannot fix you.
As much as I want to, I cannot be the woman who saves you.
I cannot be the woman who heals you.
I cannot be the woman who bears your pain alongside her own.
Jonathan Pendleton
Because I do not have the ability to make your brokenness fade away.
Because I do not have the power to be anything more than a person who loves you.
Because you could, and must, learn to save yourself.
I am not theansweryou are searching for.
I am not this perfect being, worthy of being put on a pedestal.
I am fragile and flawed just as much as you are.
I am not the one who can fix you.
You must embark on that soul-search alone.
Dont get me wrong, I love you.
I will stand beside you.
I will support you.
I will never be more than a phone call away.
I wont run, simply because youre going through a hard season.
But I cant be the one to take your heart and make it whole again.
I can love you with every ounce of my being.
I can walk alongside you, supporting you as you both rise and fall.
I can encourage you and give you strength.
But I cannot heal you, I can only love you.And sometimes that is simply not enough.
So like dont lean on me to rebuild you.
kindly dont see me as an answer, rather than an imperfect person in your life.
yo dont put me in a place of being a savior whom I am not capable of being.
kindly understand that being yours does not equate to being the one who saves you.
And like remember, most of all, that you do not need fixing, but rebuilding.
And you are, and always will be, strong enough to rebuild yourself.
