something more

having to come to terms with the fact that love is not an everlasting performance in which you attempt to retain the attention of your significant other but rather a release of control and putting faith into them and trusting them to choose to stay with you no matter what you have to offer

thinking about how love doesn't need to be vocalised to be loud. It's the small intimate moments like making dinner together, sharing inside jokes, the passing glances and the eye contacts in a crowded room, the occasional brushing or arms or legs bumping against each other under the table. It's how love can be expressed in so many other ways than words.
