I don't want to apologize For the way I love. The way my unspoken loyalty Speaks louder than every word. Or the way I show up Genuinely and often. I don't want to apologize For thinking about people Reaching out to people Checking on people And listening to people I don't want to At least not all the time. But sometimes I do, I do want to remove The love I have to apologize for. Because it's too soft To fragile or gentle Mishandled Or misunderstood What do I do with it The love that's too much Apologize? But I don't want to apologize For the way I love
