We hold on to those people who cannot love us for so many reasons. In a way or the other, they make us feel that we are so difficult to be loved and cared for. We pause, we introspect and we give our best to let ourselves feel worthy of their love. We wait to feel loved. And in this run for holding on to people who treat us the worst possible, we let go of the people who love us for so many reasons.

Let go of this kind of love. Rather, hold on to people who love you when you are at your worst. Hold on to people who can hear you crying at 2 in the morning, and is there to pick you up. Make room for the people who are there for you where the world seems to cease away. Make room, make enough room for people who are there to lift you up and make you better with every passing day.

Stop holding on to people who see the worst in you even when you’re at your best. Stop doing that to yourself. We all deserve the love that manages to see the good in us even when we are on the verge of breaking down. Make room for such people and please do not let them go. Hold them too close to your heart and keep on doing the best for them. The love we deserve will love us for our folly. Most importantly, the love we deserve will love us for who we are.
