“I found you inside a moment; it was a tiny one yet its stillness grasped me whole. And I looked at you — and thought it everlasting. And in that moment, it was. We were. We vanquished all drained silences; we found each other, we, perhaps, melted inside these very seconds — we were, we were.”

People always say that it hurts at night

and apparently screaming into your pillow at 3am

is the romantic equivalent of being heartbroken.

But sometimes

it’s 9am on a tuesday morning

and you’re standing at the kitchen bench waiting for the toast to pop up

And the smell of dusty sunlight and earl gray tea makes you miss him so much 

you don’t know what to do with your hands.

“I shouldn’t have to be a liar to make someone love me. I shouldn’t be so afraid of losing someone that I’ll do anything to make them stay.”
