i love you
wait...
did you hear that?
That is the sound of nothing changing.
The sound of life continuing its story,
The wind progressing its journey.
Nothing has changed.
But...
Did you feel that?
The feeling that; the Earth is still
rotating.
love is not taboo.
To be in love is not a crime.
So why treat it as such?
I told you: I love you.
And nothing,
has changed.
I wrote this because I recently told a friend of mine I loved her. Her reaction caused me to reflect massively, as she begun shunning me: She no longer returns my calls, replies to my texts, and never seems to have a free day to make plans. I told her I love her, and she overreacted.
I feel that too many people are afraid to express their true feelings, in fear of having things not go their way, but: Nothing will go your way if you don't put yourself out there. Be brave. After reflecting, I realised that giving her time to process it all and form a conclusion would be the best thing to do. Now I have no control over what will come next but that's okay with me, what happens, happens. Don't be scared to tell someone you love them, you may only get one chance to do so (not to sound morbid or anything)
