I LOVED.

Within the last two years of my high school career, I fell in love. 

So yes, my story continues.

Long story short?  I fell in love with a girl, broke her heart, mended it, and then she broke mine. Sounds awful doesn't it? To tell you the truth, it was wonderful. It was amazing to have loved and been loved so beautifully. So many people wish they could experience something so powerful, but many never do. I was lucky enough to be a part of the few who do.

The movies never get it right, everything is always so predictable. Writers never understand that the perfect love movie is the one behind the scenes. Love is like.. Love is like the stars in the sky you see at night. The way they're scattered everywhere so randomly, but it still makes so much sense. 

Love is like knowing that she takes her coffee with two creams and no sugar. Or how sometimes she just needs some hot chai tea to make her feel better. Love is turning to one another for strength when all you feel is weak. Love is learning to love the 5-year-old side of her and appreciating the silliness. 

Love is giving up the love of your life so that she may grow and learn to love herself as much as you love her.

Love is knowing when to let go, and knowing when to wait outside the door until she's ready to walk in with you.

Love is sacrificing your own heart so that she may keep hers together.
