Love.

What is love?

Love is realizing

From out of the blue

One day

That your favorite color is

The color of their eyes

And that your favorite noise is

The sound of their laugh.

It is the sudden realization that

Even though you argue and you bicker

And you fight like tomorrow will never come

You are willing to stay by their side.

Love is the sound of your heart thumping

In your ears as you descend into the

Unknown

Or the sound of waves crashing against

Rocks as you stand on top of the world

And it comes in many, many different forms

And lives in many different beings

As something that takes all of the smallest

Happiest things and bunches them up

Together into the biggest significance

Of your life.

That is love.
