"He asked me why I fell in love with him, but I didn't know how to explain it."
Cliche as it sounds, there aren't enough words to explain how I happened to fall madly and deeply in love with him. He had no idea how much he makes my insides flutter and how much he makes me feel alive whenever he's around. For moments, hours and even seconds, he's like a shooting star propelled towards me with velocity. I have invariably believed that he was sent by God for me, fell through the heavens and aflame like a falling star. I'm blessed with love to love him, probably til' the luminous sphere of plasma burnt out above him.
How do I explain to him that since the day I first laid my eyes on him, everything surprisingly made sense? That all those heartbreaks, sleepless nights, painful rejections, unrequited crushes, and failed relationships were actually making sense now that I've met him. I was like a broken wheel but he was someone who's able to amend it.
How do I tell him how much his happiness means more to me than my own? How do I tell him how much he's good at painting amazing colors in my dull life? How do I explain to him that everything I previously find unrelatable before is actually starting to look like my life now, just because I fell in love with someone so pure and magical? How do I explain to him that I fell in love with how words cascades out from his mouth whenever he shares with me downright comical stories which he really loves?
