Written in Reverse (One-shot)

What do you do when you start losing the things you once knew so well?

People take love's continuity for granted. They don't realize that the best thing about love is its regular presence. Maybe I am one of those people. Taking the love that was given to me for granted, but don't we all do?

They say that actions speak louder than words. That the love one gives should be felt and not heard. A relationship is not patterned on love alone. It needs trust, will, happiness, sadness, ups, and downs. And lastly, it needs reassurance, and that is what we lack.

I have always thought there was something romantic about fighting for someone, about winning them back. Eventual happiness. But as I sit here, stones in my chest, where hope used to lie. I have come to realize that there is nothing lovely about having to continuously convince someone to love you.
