Forever is a Strong Word

"I think humans fall in love easily because we crave things. We crave the feeling that love brings. The race of heart, the slight adrenaline. It's a rush. I don't think we fall in love so to speak, it's more of an infatuation. We fall in love with a painting and how the colors swirl and burst. It brings up emotions we never knew we had. And when we fall in love with someone, we fall in love with their eyes, lips, fingers, the small crinkles around their eyes when they laugh. I don't think we fall in love, actual love, with someone until much later. Until after we're done being obsessed. Our heart races a little slower. the adrenaline not so strong. But it's still there. It always is. It's no longer a crazy ride, though. It's a strong steady beat. One that we know and are comfortable with. Just like how we become comfortable with our hearts beating as one."
