We ignore the ones who adore us, adore the ones who ignore us, love the ones who hurt us, and hurt the ones that love us.
Love is how when he touches me I become weak. Love is when he stops what he’s doing so he can look over at me and smile. Love is when he knocks into me just to see me smile back at him. It’s when I can’t be angry with him longer than 10 seconds. It’s the feeling I get whenever I think about him. And knows that he gets that feeling too. It’s when I can feel him stare at me from across the room. Its when he listens to everything I have to say even if he doesn’t care. It’s when he jokingly tells me he loves me but really does mean it. Love is when he sits beside me when there are 10 other available seats. Love is when he sits beside me when there are 10 other available girls. Love is when I prefer blue eyes but could settle with brown. Love is how nobody ever makes me the feel the way he does. When he offers me his coat even if it means he would freeze. When he says he’ll never leave me. When he sticks up for me. When he offers up his seat. When he sits in my lap just to get a laugh. Love is when I can remember everything he has ever said or did. Love is when I couldn’t possibly stop the feelings I have for him even though I have tried so hard. Love is when he keeps coming back because neither of us can get enough. Its when he would never be out of line with me or hurt my feelings intentionally. Love is him and me… just him and me.
Everything that needs to happen, will happen, in the time that it takes to happen, the way it was meant to happen. You need to trust in that.
You know those dreams when you’re falling and falling and falling- there’s nothing you can do to stop, you have no control & you never hit the ground? Well that’s what love is. it’s when you keep thinking.. this is too good to be true. And just when it seems it totally over, you have to find the painful bottom of this bottomless pit. But you keep going. Sometimes you want to stop, but at the same time you never want this dream to be over? Constantly falling faster and father down, with the wind in you hair. It’s a rush and then you think you see the bottom, and you get scared. You feel lonely but then when you get there, you realize it’s just a shadow & you keep falling.. Still faster. And now the fear of the bottom is just a “shadow” of what it was. Only the voice in the back of your mind is saying “slow down- be careful, remember what that felt like?!” But have no control. You can’t stop, even if you wanted to. But if you wanted to, you wouldn’t. Because you also know in the back of your mind, that if you wanted yourself to wake up, you could make yourself but you don’t. So you wanna know why, if these dreams are so great, why do people hate them? Because throughout the dream they know they’re gonna wake up. And then they do. With love you don’t. You never wake up, and you know you’ll never wake up. You’ll always have those moment where you see a shadow and think you’ve hit the bottom but you didn’t. You’ll keep going, cause even if the bottom was steel, and you did hit it. You wouldn’t feel a thing, and you’d go right through it, and continue falling; cause love is a stronger force than steel, or anything else for that matter. I guess that’s why they call it “falling in love.
Being together is more than just physical. It’s understanding the other person, being there for them, talking for hours, making each others dreams come true. It’s being in love and not needing anything to make it come true.
