Does he deserve a place in your heart?
Youve been acting like youre fine, letting go and moving on.
Until suddenly, surprisingly, you did.

Phung Hai
One day you rolled over and didnt feel his absence on the other side of the bed.
You brushed your hair and got dressed without wondering whether hed like the new jeans you bought.
You made breakfast that didnt include his usual request of sunny-side eggs.

You got ready for work.
You scrolled through your social media.
You got in your car and turned on your favorite radio station.

Phung Hai
And you didnt think about him at all.
You let him go.
You had slivers of hope that he would return, and they were crushed.

You had days where you wondered whether you could actually make it work, and they were defeated.
As time passed, you moved on.
You found new people, a new purpose, a new sense of hope and self-love.
But here he was, coming back.
Before you knew what was happening, he was asking what your Friday night plans were.
He was bumping into you at the local bar.
He was wondering about your love life, your work, your family.
And then, he was wanting you back.
that pulled the rug right from under you.
You were angry, confused, frustrated and elated.
You were hopeful, suddenly, at the prospect of getting back together.
And then you were disappointed in yourself for even considering him.
Does he deserve a place in your heart?
Are you willing and able to love him enough to forgive him, to bring him back in?
And is he worthy?
Does he love you enough to never let you go?Did he already lose you?
Maybe hes lost his chance this time around.
Maybe he should have known months and years ago that you were the one he wanted.
Maybe hes a little too late.
I know this hurts.
I know this is confusing.
I know theres a weight on your chest too heavy to bear.
But you have to know what you deserve, sweetie.
You have to know that there is love out there that never leaves.
And maybe, just maybe, thats the person you should be pursuing.
The one you dont have to chase because hes beside you.Because when push comes to shove, he stays.
