Why are we all so hung up on “forever?” Why does “forever” mean more to us, happy or otherwise, than “happy for as long as it lasts” might mean?

“

The truth is as complicated and as guarded as you were I was never going to give up on you.

“

Maybe forever isn’t what you thought it would be. Maybe it’s something so much more.

“

Diamonds cost a lot of money. Why? Because they’re rare, you might think! But you would be wrong. At least, you wouldn’t have the entire story.

“

Your forever person will answer your most serious texts with phone calls. 

“

Smears of black mascara on perfect white lace. Smears of infidelity, deceit, and heartbreak on my perfect fairy tale.

“

You realize that you were wrong all along. You don’t actually have to go it alone. You don’t actually have to hide your feelings to protect yourself. And yourself isn’t actually the only person that you can rely on. 

“

I fell in love with you every day, like it’s the first time I saw you.

“

To my boyfriend whom I care deeply for, I want an easy kind of love. The kind where we look at each other and just get it. Know what we’re both thinking.

“

I sit here with the taste of you
Still on my lips
The smell of you
Still fresh in my nostrils
