A collection of short stories, poetry, musings-- all the good parts, all the bad parts, some of them barely literature, in order-- about none other than love:
Disclaimer: These are mainly old stories, compiled together. However, keep reading and perhaps I'll throw in a fresh one-- a little surprise from moi.
We have all read or seen a good romance; they fight the feelings they have at first, they overcome barriers because they love each other so much, and it either ends in a happily ever after, or the like. Leaving you with a feeling; "till death do they part". I love romance novels, love rom-coms, hell I even love other people who are in love. Love is fun to observe, and these are once in a lifetime stories.
If I find a person stubborn enough to try and make me fall in love, I have no doubt. I believe they'll succeed.
But what about the everyday stories, the ones somehow lost in the mix of defining and distinguishing, between infatuation and true love? What if it was backwards? What if you thought about the ever after at first, and came to a realization that this isn't working and began putting up barriers? Maybe you tried to change-- yourself, your feelings.
Uncanny how similar love is, to war.
But there is one consistency. It's all for love. Because when it's real, there's nothing like it.
Fighting, crying, kissing in the rain, and standing your ground. In the name of love.
