Fearless but Shy

“We all have one foot in a fairytale, and the other in the abyss.”

“I no longer say forever. I no longer say forever, I no longer throw around the term so freely. For my mind and heart wish forever to be true. I’m careful with my words, and use the word “if” as a security. If I trick my mind into thinking that everything is temporary and nothing is forever, then I won’t get my hopes up. But I feel it, I feel it everyday I look into your eyes, every time you whisper you love me, my soul craves a forever with you. My sound judgment vanishes when I’m in your presence because maybe just maybe forever is a possibility with you. But I won’t tell you that, I won’t tell you that what would make me happiest is to be with you forever. In the past I used that term so freely, but they never lasted. It put me in a binding contract, for I kept my promise of a love that lasts forever, and ultimately it destroyed me. So forever or not, right now I know I am in love with you, and right now is all that matters.”

Give the world a smile so genuine that it makes flowers bloom everywhere it touches.
