Written for a friend who was going through a break up
What will it take is a loaded question…what will it take to make you happy…what will it take to make you cry…what will it take to fall in love…what will it take to make you feel safe…what will it take when you feel like you’re on top of the world…when you you can’t sleep at night and feel all alone…
What will it take for someone to listen…when you don’t have the words to speak…will they get uncomfortable and try to end the silence…or will they be able to be there when your soul is crying out…sometimes it seems that words need to be said…
What will it take to heal…from a love that was so real…what will it take when you feel like you got nothing left to offer…in reality you have given everything…even when your heart has expanded…what will it take to be a friend…to a person who is hurting…sometimes all it takes is being with them…
What will it take to love again…you made it this far…you don’t have to right away…there isn’t a timeline…there isn’t a formula that I can give you…spending time together…helps the days go faster…and they say time heals…but that’s not always evident in the present…
