"It wasn't the type of love you read about, or the love you pine over while watching your favourite romance movie, curled up on the couch whilst shoving your face full of chocolate and crying hysterically.

It was the kind of love that had you gasping for air, as its hold on your mind, soul and body strengthened. No, it wasn't a ground shaking, world stopping, firework exploding kind of love. But it was engraved into every inch of my body, mind, soul and wrapped firmly around my heart. But I guess that doesn't really matter now."
