virgin self-love

I tell you:

I will grow my own flowers and love my own self. I will be healthy and happy and you will have nothing to do with it. I will appreciate me just as you did but to me it will matter much more. And yes, I will miss you always but no I will not lose my love for myself when you do. I will water and nurture and grow my own flowers, and I will be ok when you’re gone.
