Tears Freeze Over
Life can be tough in ways that we never ask for.
We can pretend that we don't wish to have someone next to us
when we weep into our sheets at night.
I know I did.
However, I met a woman.
A woman that made the only sadness in the world
come from an absence of her.
When you find a person like her, you will do anything
just to keep them by your side.
Why do we do it?
Is it because they fill our head with so many wonderful thoughts
that our problems and fears pour from our minds?
Is it the addiction humans have to the feeling of being loved?
Or rather, is it the complete fear we have of losing someone
who tears down our barriers and opens our minds and hearts?
We laugh
we love
we share stories
we share memories
and we make memories.
When I'm with her, every single second
feels like a dream that I will later explain to my friends
with a blushing face and bright smile.
I guess, when it reaches the point that every moment with them
feels like something we have been waiting our entire day
or week
or month
or life for, that's when you know you found the person who betters you.
We do anything for them.
So why do we do it?
Well, I do it because
I love you.
