I think I've lived long enough to know that
every 'quote' has its own paradox
Because quite honestly if you follow one, you'll reach some sort of deadlock
Because what even is 'It's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.'
It's a silly phrase someone wrote when they couldn't hold their loved ones any longer
Or how about that other one
Where you should place your heart on fate and destiny?
Let that person go if you love them,
oh but the side effect is that the pain will sink in quite dreadfully
That's not love, love isn't made of quotes and concepts
It's not a Hollywood rom-com, it's an ongoing prospect
It's growing together and making mistakes
Sharing your ideas, sharing playlists
It's laughing in unison at your own jokes and blasting Troye Sivan after I put on The Beatles
It's crying on a shoulder you can put your trust on,
It's a 3 am messages when no one else can be relied upon
It's entangling two minds and creating a bond
It's the sick worried feeling when the other doesn't respond
It's a heck of a tolerance and understanding
And loving the soul, because looks aren't everlasting
It's a million other things that no one ever taught you
You learn yourself because it's different every time you go through
That feeling when you catch a glimpse of them starring back
The you, you once knew, stopped seeing in white and black
There's purple, and blue a different name for a different hue
Emerald, crimson, amber, it's us, it's me, it's you.
