There's a certain beauty in the moments just before you meet the person who is going to be your everything. The simplicity and ignorant bliss from the universe and your naïve mind as it silently alerts you, saying, "Hey, this person is going to be the beginning of something wonderful." Although, you'll think later that they are the bane of your existence. You'll curse yours and their presence for what they made you feel. But you'll fail to remember the moments before you fell and before, when you were willing to fight. The moments when you walked across the room and first laid eyes on them, thinking nothing of it but in that second you were already captivated. The fate of the world had already sewed your timelines together in a jumbled hurry, creating a beautiful stitch of love you'll only be able to see if you take a step back and remember the little things. Like the moments before you realized how much they meant to you and their existence became the air you breathed and before the moments when they were nothing and suddenly meant everything.
