My Love For You
My love for you is not dependent on your good grades, how you look, how much you weigh, or what you wear
My love for you is not dependent on which friends you keep, who you date, or whether you graduate
My love for you is not dependent on your gender identity, your sexual orientation, the state of your mental health, or the amount of money you earn
My love for you is not dependent on if you marry, who you marry, or whether you have children
My love for you will not change if you get cancelled on the Internet, are suspended, arrested, fired from a job, get pregnant, or get an abortion
You are not a disappointment to me like you may be thinking. I may be disappointed in circumstances or my shattered expectations. I may be surprised by things you say or frustrated with how things turn out
I may hurt if you are hurting and get angry and want to blame someone. I may say things I regret and may make you feel like you are a disappointment –
But, you are not.
My love for you will always remain
For as long as I breathe, you are my child
You cannot earn this love You cannot change this love or lose it This love for you is fierce. And it’s never going away
