As we keep going ✿

Quiet love

Drops of rain poured down the window glass,
trailing and cascading,
the sky had gone dark the twilight beginning to shine,
a chill swept the air.
A quiet room, an air of warmth and in the midst of it all,
two souls bound together, whispering promised love and sweet nothings.

How I met him.

I never thought about love as
something necessary

That day had begun fairly normal, the day everything changed. I woke up got ready for school and left but somehow I felt different, like something was about to change.

I spoke to the same people I usually do, ate what I normally ate, everything went by routine.

We got new seats.
Ahh this is where it all changed.

I met him for the first time in my new seat, I remember thinking he was loud. he smiled a lot, laughed a lot, it seemed like a joy to him, to be alive. He seemed like the sun, but I called him my moon.

I spoke to him, he was sweet he made jokes and said nice things, I didn't know he already knew who I was, he seemed to look at me with importance and I felt myself fall.

He made me laugh and we go closer, slowly bringer our chairs closer and then our hands, flinching when they touched, laughing when our eyes met.

I had fallen.

I loved him the day I met him, the day he brought some sun in my eyes, some stars in my sky. but I was the moon, the starless sky how could he ever love me?

And once when we were all alone standing on an open corridor, somehow I told him,
on an evening when the gold spread far and wide, illumination the sky, I told my precious love how I yearned for him. And he told me too.

I felt tears well up in my eyes, I tried to keep them down, he held my hands and and held my face, looked into my eyes and spoke, spoke of his love and spoke of his dreams. He spoke of me too in ways I never thought imaginable.

We both searched for solace in each other and found it in the company of one another, on the day the gold touched every corner of the sky.
