love louder.

 

u dun lose someone all at once. it happens slowly. quietly. in the in-between moments u din think mattered. u lose em when they repeat themselves over and over, and u keep brushing it off - telling urself there is time. u lose em when love starts to feel like effort only they r making, while u r busy bein 'jst tired.'

u lose em when ur silence speaks louder than ur presence. when they start to feel lonelier beside u than they ever did on their own.

and here is the truth most ppl dun wanna hear: by the time u realize wats slipping away, it is alrdy gone. they r not angry. they r not bitter. they hav jst stopped tryin. and when someone stops caring - not out of spite, but exhaustion - dats a goodbye u’ll never hear coming.

so if someone is still showin up for u.. listen better. love louder. dun wait for the silence to teach u wat presence shld hav.
