AND at this moment, that special person of yours, should look at you straight in the eye, and make you feel the intensity at the other end of that promise  “I love you”, meaning I promise to be genuine, I promise to try and ease the darkness around you, I promise to always try and never take you for granted,

BECAUSE  Love shouldn’t be a habit but a gift,  and from that moment, you should feel like you’re seeing the world through a fresh pair of eyes,

See, nowadays, “ I love you” can be heard around every corner, but very few people can keep that sacred promise;

You shouldn’t have to force the words out of that person, because when you finally hear them, it won’t feel like the natural order, on the contrary, you’ll feel the void slowly taking hold of you, and you’ll wake up with question marks everyday.

When a person tells you “ I love you” , it shouldn’t feel like a lie, it should feel as if you’re feeling  the warmth on your skin for the first time, as if you’re reading your favorite book for the first time…  pure bliss

And as time goes by, those  " I love you" will either be strenghten or will turn to  " I hate you " . There’s a thin layer between love and hate, now, it’s up to us to keep the balance on the right side

YOU can play with words as long as you want, but make sure that you mean every single one of them, and most importantly, bring them back to life, stage them, the words are already out there, you just have to follow the script, right?
