I'm not brave, I never said I was brave, and I will continue saying I'm not brave.
Bravery isn't politeness to trolls if you do that because you don't want trouble.
Bravery isn't saying "Yeah I like guys" if you never admit who you like.
Bravery isn't standing up for others or speaking back to people if you can't keep quiet.
Bravery isn't admitting obsessions, if others admit bigger confessions while you can't.
Bravery isn't being dumped, it's dumping another person even though you know it hurts.
Bravery isn't dating someone, it's being able to be single.
Bravery isn't admitting you like someone, it's admitting you don't.
Bravery isn't 9 accounts, it's one.
Bravery isn't ignoring jealousy, it's admitting it.
Bravery isn't telling the truth, it's telling the whole truth.
Bravery isn't going "there", it's being you and going "here" anyway.
Bravery isn't what I am, and I'll never be brave enough.
That's why you're my hero. You might not think you're that great, but you were able to do the one thing I never could, even despite all life's hardships, and for that I truely idolize you. This in itself is proof I'm not brave. I can't even tell you this to your face. I wish one day that I'll be able to be as brave as you... At this rate, I wish I could tell you to your face.
I'm not brave.
I'm not like you.
Not in this.
But for once, I'm not jealous.
Just in awe.
If there was ever someone to take her position, I'm glad it's you.
You are my bravery.
You are my crutch.
You are the wind beneath my wings.
To sound cliche - you are the sun, shining after a hard storm.
You are you, please, never change.
Idk if this is a poem or not... :shrug: Idk, I like it anyway...
