When he is curled up in a ball, head under the covers, eyes red, swearing that boys don't cry, boys don't cry, boys don't cry; take his bruised knuckles in your hands and tell him you love him. When he is pulling at his hair, so hard it sticks out around the edges and digging tough nails into the palms of his hands, kiss the pink crescents and tell him you love him. When he is shouting or yelling or making you hate him with his mean words, look at his eyes to see if they are still kind. When his tongue is sharp and his brow is hard, look at his eyes and if they are saying "I wish I could hate you right now but I love you, I love you, I love you", take those words out of his mouth and tell him how much you love him.
And when it's you the one that's feeling miserable, trust him to take your heart in both hands and keep it warm. Trust him to wrap his arms around your shoulders and never let you go. Just open up your heart and trust him to take care of it.
— m.f. // Make him feel loved
