you will fall in love so many times.
or at least that’s what i’ve been told.
and i believe it.
you will fall in love so many times. at age 8, or age 18 and even at age 30.
and a few in between.
but one day, be it at age 12 or 20, you will fall in love with someone who’ll make your heart stop and your world spin and who will make you feel like the sun is shining even on a rainy day. someone who’ll stay up all night just to talk to you and who’ll lose sleep just thinking about your smile. someone who will call you beautiful and mean it. someone who will come up from behind you and grab you by the waist and remind you they love you. someone who will send you a good night text even if you haven’t spoken all day. someone who will write you letters telling you all the things they love about you. someone who’ll write you letters full of everything they can’t say out loud.
and then it’s going to end and it’ll destroy you and you are forever going to hold other guys up to that standard even if you know it’s unreasonable.
you are forever going to hold this person in your heart.
and sometimes you’re going to fall back in love with them,
sometimes they’ll love you back,
but other times, you’ll be falling on your own.
and you’ll reread those love letters looking for the character trait they didn’t mention they loved
