Respect

I don't really know to describe what I'm feeling. So instead I'll talk about respect.

Respect is defined as a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements. Elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements. 

I have none of those things; what would respecting me be like?

Respect is not only given by those close to you. Those associated (to your inner circle) can only respect you as far as they've seen you respected. 

This can be seen in the manner of how a boyfriends friends and family will treat his girlfriend. If she is not seen to be respected or cared for by her boyfriend, then why should they?

This can be seen in the way the elder brothers wife treats his sister. Because you have the position, must you abuse it? Where is the love that is supposed to be family?

Or in the way a son speaks of his mother in front of company. Her exit is always followed by "She's so fucking annoying." Where is the love that is supposed to be respect?

Love is love but I don't want it without respect.

Without respect, love is lost.
