All The Things I've Never Said Before - Part 8

.

Your salary is not love and your words are not love. The clothes you wear are not love and holding hands is not love. Sex is not love and a kiss is not love. Long letters are not love and a text is not love. Neither are flowers or a box of chocolates. Sunsets are not love and photographs are not love. The smell of someone else on your pillow is not love and the feeling of their skin on yours is not love. Pretty heart-shaped candy is not love. The truth is winning an argument is not love. Warm coffee is not love and cheap postcards are not love. Tears are not love and laughter is not love. A head on a shoulder to cry on is not love and messages written at the front of these pages are not love. Apathy is not love and feeling numbness is not love. A pain in your chest is not love and clenching your fist so hard it hurts is not love. Rain is not love. Only you. Only you, are love
