My mother always told me that when you're in love you'll "just know".
For years,
I nodded in agreement as she told me stories
About the day she met my father
A school choir trip
He sat behind her on purpose
Hoping to strike up a conversation.
She was "cooler" than him,
I guess.
Though he was two grades ahead
She played soccer.
They talked for hours
As the bus lead them to a destination
They'd never seen coming.
I'm not a fan of Fairytales.
I used to say they were nonexistent.
That is,
Until I met you.
