Love isn't the endless colours of confusion running through your mind on a lonely Friday night thinking that without them, you'd be nothing. Love isn't the messages they send you at 4 AM because you're sleeping & they miss your body sprawled all over theirs in a lovely mess of lust & fascination. Love isn't purely the cute dates in blanket forts with loud music & ugly fights with disagreements followed by rude names.
Love is your best friend who brings you hot chocolate in the summer & ice cream in the winter because you love them both all year round. Love is the beautiful baby of a stranger in an ugly stroller passing you on the side walk today who happened to be the only one to shine you a smile. Love is the girl who ordered from you two weeks ago with the most beautiful curly hair & her politeness stuck in your mind as you endlessly wonder if she made it home okay.
It's important to love & trust me I love so many new people each & every day. You should too. Love someone's shirt because it doesn't suit them but they wear it anyway. Love someone's smile when it's raining but they're dancing. Love someone's kindness when they're treated like dirt. Love someone's eyes when they catch you from across the room.
Love people, every day, all the time. There's something to love in everybody & if you find someone with everything to love in them, hold them close.
