f/o who knows you aren’t okay. who noticed that you sleep more, eat less, that your feet drag when you walk.
f/o that lets you break down, even when you’re the happy friend. the emotional support friend. the okay friend.
f/o that comes home to find you in the same spot you were in when they left, and goes into the kitchen. they come back with tea and your favourite treat. they sit you up against them and they feed you. they hold the water to your lips.
f/o that doesn’t give up on you.
f/o that isn’t going to let you go, isn’t going to sit and watch you suffer like this. who holds you when you cry, who sits in all the hurt with you. who hates that you feel this way about yourself, about life.
f/o that believes you deserve a life better than this. and stops at nothing to give it to you.
f/o that knows you can do it, just that you need help. they know you don’t like asking for help, so they do it silently.
f/o that will not let you give up.
because they love you far too much for that.
