My Love

I genuinely don't know how to start this because there's quite a lot to unpack

Wait, let me take my PrEP

Take your time, girl

The best parts of my youth, they mean nothing to me

Took a blow to my chest, had to grit my teeth

Love is a zero sum game

But not when I can't seem to restore my faith

So I had a plan to never look back

Once I've finally made my escape

'Cause how do I love?

How do I love?

How do I trust?

How do I trust?

When hurting is all that I've known since forever

And how can I sleep?

How can I sleep?

How can I dream?

How can I dream?

When hurting is all I'm able to remember

No, you'll never have my love

My love, my love, my love

My love, my love, my love

My love, my love, my love

I wish that I could run

Can't hold it in much longer

But I'm my father's son

You are your mother's daughter

And if it ends with me

I gotta prove I'm stronger

Stronger

Still, how do I love?

How do I love?

How do I trust?

How do I trust?

When hurting is all that I've known since forever

Since forever

And how can I sleep?

How can I, how can I?

How can I dream?

When hurting is all I'm able to remember

No, you'll never have my love

My love, my love, my love

My love, my love, my love

My love, my love, my love

Never have my love

We find meaning in like, our own families

That's why having chosen families is so important

Especially for like, people of marginalized identities

We choose who we wanna call family

And I think that

That's a big step
