love is like a roller coaster

♥ twenty eight ♥

i never thought i was a hopeless romantic until i realized i was hopeless for you.

love used to be a far-off vision, something to put away in the back depths of my brain and think about in the future.

but then you came into my life,
so beautiful and alive and lovely,
and suddenly it became rather obvious to me that love was much closer than i wanted to believe.

i've tried not to love you.
i really have.
who knew trying to stop something that kept hurting me would only put me in more pain?

now all my thoughts are you
and your face
and your laugh
and your voice
and the way you make me feel.
you are overwhelming.
my love, can we be hopeless for each other?
