“Love is not a sentence. It is a pattern. You can whisper it with your mouth, or you can prove it with your habits. Show me in the way you protect what matters. Show me in the way you keep your word. Show me in the way you choose me when it is inconvenient. Do not decorate me with promises. Demonstrate me with consistency. If you love me, let it be visible in your discipline. Let it be evident in your restraint. Let it be obvious in how you love yourself. Because the way you care for your own soul is the blueprint for how you will care for mine. Do not say it. Build it.” — Marion Bekoe
Love is not a sentence.
It is a pattern.
You can whisper it with your mouth,
or you can prove it with your habits.
Show me in the way you protect what matters.
Show me in the way you keep your word.
Show me in the way you choose me when it is inconvenient.
Do not decorate me with promises.
Demonstrate me with consistency.
If you love me,
let it be visible in your discipline.
Let it be evident in your restraint.
Let it be obvious in how you love yourself.
Because the way you care for your own soul
is the blueprint for how you will care for mine.
Do not say it.
Build it.
