we read about love and how it destroys you but never did they mention that it makes you tired as soon as you awake. they never mentioned that their kiss would tingle then burn against your skin. they never mentioned that love could be so bittersweet that you sit up at night wishing the covers that hug your body tightly, were his arms instead. they never mentioned how your cheeks wouldn't be the only thing turning red. so i will always hate love, because i was never taught what it truly was.
