Dear You Who Were Always There,
#InvisibleSupport #FriendZonedSoul #AlwaysTheSecondChoice
You were the dependable one.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rBiRZZPfX
The one who never forgot birthdays,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8TmfW8y2H
who stayed up late to listen,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzVWQCZh0s
who clapped the loudest at every victory—44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0uRJVYh8i
even when no one clapped for you.
You were the seat left open at the table,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrO2awQTnId
but never the reason the table was set.
You gave your loyalty freely,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmFqHLONCO
showed up with your whole heart,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhzbrSIHv1
hoped—quietly, endlessly—44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtl62UPGWWf
that this time, they would choose you.
But somehow, you were always background.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFiAaAFtC3
Always the friend.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTG3IPgIcrA
Always "thank you for being there,"44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjI9aXz9jAe
but never "I couldn't do this without you."44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wiMFB0nyz
Never the first call,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesnYE1vKvK
never the favorite.
And the worst part?44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIavuUwdt0T
You kept showing up anyway.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPEydGl8O3
Kept believing that maybe love is earned44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡER0nuDyxv4
if you just care enough,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQ7i58d3Fw
try enough,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEYM0OiqF7
give enough.
You accepted crumbs and convinced yourself they were meals.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywi2VQhOgc
You celebrated others' happiness44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eyiGfun8k
even when it meant swallowing your own pain.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjG2avahTpO
You watched them choose someone else44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYF44vL91Ks
again and again,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBpP72HURp
and still smiled for them through the ache.
But here's what I need you to know:
Your worth was never measured by who chose you.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgIvHDRZL3
It was always there—44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9R3k8Zc4Qm
in the way you stayed kind,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEheeCdJ6D
in the way you gave without expecting,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9T00KzUw3n
in the way you held space for others44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4ZMadYGdU
even when no one held space for you.
You were not invisible.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTf8LEh82i
They just didn't know how to see you.
You deserved to be someone's first thought.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvTeibXnnF
You still do.
You don't have to prove you're lovable44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rNEgEgZJy
by being the one who never leaves.
Let this be the last time you wait on the doorstep of someone else's priority list.
It's time you choose you.
With gratitude for the quiet strength you didn't know was rare,44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpwKmU8Dpo
—From the one who finally sees your light
