@officialzademeadows: You think I give you rules because I need control. You’re wrong. I give you rules because I see the way you fall apart when no one’s watching. I see how strong you pretend to be… until you’re alone, until the silence is louder than your thoughts, and suddenly you’re questioning your worth again. So no… I don’t tell you to drink water just because it’s healthy. I tell you because you’ll forget yourself for everyone else unless someone reminds you that you matter. I don’t say “text me when you wake up” because I need to know where you are. I say it because you deserve to wake up already belonging to someone. Already wanted. Already seen. The world makes you shrink. My rules? They rebuild you. Structure. Ritual. Devotion. They’re not chains. They’re anchors. And every time you follow them, you’re not obeying me… you’re returning to yourself. You think you need to be soft to be loved. But I love the way you kneel with fire still in your chest. I love the way you submit not because you’re weak… but because you finally found someone strong enough to hold all of you. You follow my rules because part of you knows you’d unravel without them. Because even in your defiance, you crave the kind of order that doesn’t punish your chaos… it cradles it. So when I say wake up. drink water. stretch. text me… what I really mean is: “I’ve got you. Even when you don’t have yourself.” And I always will. - Z.M. #BookTok #fyp #darkromance #zademeadows #hauntingadeline #poetry
