Denim, a durable fabric
Fading over the years
Eventually distressed, frayed
Like warm summer memories of years gone by
Not created to appear that way
But forged over the years
Like an old friend that has lost some luster
But is classically appealing still
True love should be like faded denim
A love of your life should gradually dim and become a classic memory rather than dissipate within months
A shared deep connection should tatter over years like the knees of a comfortable pair of denim jeans
There shouldn't need to be a reason to communicate when you have loved someone deeply
If a reason to communicate is needed months later, perhaps the love wasn't that intense as the care to just connect without a reason would still exist
Just as the color of denim will fade in intensity in time, so should the deep feelings one has. If a loved one vocalized that they would have turned their life upside down for you, it would take years rather than months to be at peace with not speaking frequently
