"Love and forever are two words that mean such different things.
You can put them together, but they don't always fit. One day you're at her house picking her up for the first date and she's wearing that lacy black dress that puts stars in your eyes, and another day you're telling her you love her for the first time and she starts crying because no ones ever told her they loved her, and then you're swearing to her that it will last, you promise that you'll be there forever.
And then, one day the words love and forever fell apart, like a puzzle being crumbled from the hands of a toddler.
And the next thing you know, you're sleeping on your best friends couch crying into bottles until both your eyes and the bottles turn empty.
And she's laying in the bed you two shared with nothing but the wind in the curtains to keep her company, soaking your pillow with her memories of the love you two once shared.
"Dear love,
Where did forever go?"
Love left first, and forever carried on behind. His promises broke, and so did her heart when he couldn't look her in the eyes and said that he truthfully loved her. He wanted everything in him to be able to love her again, but love has left, and love wasn't turning back around.
He tried to put the puzzle pieces back together, but he was missing the pieces. And in one day, two people lost all the years they had spent together, just because love left, and forever had to follow behind."
- it's about the love, not the years spent -
