I used to think love was when someone gave you a warm tingly feeling, If cherry chap-stick erupted into an emotion, If cotton candy could bleed. Now I know that love is heavy. Love is heavy and sweet, with occasional bitter layers in between; love has a mouth on it. Love will keep you in line. Love will blur the lines entirely but still expect you to remain inside them. When you feel love, you become drenched in it, you are simply sopping wet with irrational decisions spawned out of love. It is a weight I will gladly carry. I will walk into the ocean with no stopping in sight carrying armfuls of love.

The Waves Could Never Compare to the Crashing of My Heart
