Life's dark path

Don't leave like a coward

One day you'll meet a girl who will talk about the world as if she's lived a thousand lives and she'll see things in such a different perspective that you'll question everything you know. She'll describe things in words you've never heard but they sound so beautiful coming out of her mouth that you'll look them up and start using yourself. She'll be curious and have the wonder of a child and the phase "curiosity killed the cat" will take on a new meaning when people tell her things she doesn't want to hear and it makes her heart break in half so you end up holding her and picking up all the pieces. She'll bring out a passion in you that no one knew you had and she'll make you feel something you've never felt. She'll hide her face when you see her with her all messy and no makeup and your voice will catch in your throat because she looks like the most beautiful woman in the world. She'll act a little crazy and ignite a fire in your bones that burns so bad it makes you want to run for your life. Don't. Don't you dare. Stare at her even if she's so bright it burns, hold her close even though you're terrified that if you touch her the wrong way she'll break. Kiss her so hard you see stars. Trace the scars that cover her body like a road map, don't let her be ashamed. She makes you feel vulnerable and it will scare the living daylights out of you. You're not used to being out of control, let the new experience teach you lessons. It won't make you a hero to leave because you're afraid of breaking her, you do her no favor by leaving her after she has just started putting her faith in you.
So don't you dare run. Do not run away from what scares you because you have potential to be so much more than a coward who breaks her heart. Love her for as long as possible, because if you don't....I promise you will forever regret it.
