The Vast Effects Of The L Word.

There are a lot of things that join people together.
It could be the mutual appreciation of the divine taste of nutella
Or the hatred for anything and everything in general

Then there's love.
The strange emotion that pulls you into this vortex of stammering, blushing, freeze modes, and The oh so famous butterflies in tummy feeling, but darn those butterflies, its a stampede of wild rhinos
And I'd know because I'm the zoo keeper trying to tame those rhinos.

I'm Fable - weird name, i know.
And I'm gonna tell you about the various effects that dreaded word had on me and him.
I am not in anyway liable to the damages that will be caused to your guts when you laugh them out.
Just saying.

" Aids?"

"No! He's in love with you."
