they tell you that
the first time you fall in love
it will be magical.
they're right.
you will meet someone with
marble eyes and every time your hands meet
you'll feel like you're dancing in the rain
while somehow staying dry.
all of the cliches will ring true.
the first time you fall in love,
it will be magical.
but no one ever tells you
that the second or the
third or the
fourth time
will be so much more than cliches,
it will be like a hurricane
it will be not noticing the sunset
it will be rooftops and bluebonnets and stars
it will be indescribable
it will be nothing like you expected.
you will never forget your first,
no matter how hard you try,
but it will not feel so fairytale anymore.
when love happens again
you won't want to blink
because you're too scared you'll miss it,
but you can fall in love over and over and
each time can be more special than the last.
when the magic disappears,
hold out for the unexpected and the unpredictable.
-Caroline Builta
