You’re so worried about finding the love of your life that you’re missing out on the love
around you
The romance you seek can be found in the arms of your friends
Dancing in the kitchen at 12 am, drunk on wine and laughter
Witnessing the world around you on a patch of grass
Engaging in conversations with randoms about the facts of life
So contagious that anyone witnessing it can’t help but join in
The type of love that will hold your hair in the bathroom at a random bar on a Thursday night
The type of love that will make you cackle as you both share the horrors of modern dating
The type of love that will become the reminder that it exists beyond the teaching of romantic
films and books
The type of love that will create a feast on the table, so everyone eats
All walking angels healing the bleeding wounds they didn’t cause
Being your daily reminder that love does exist
That there is nothing wrong with you
As there will be people who will see you and adore everything you offer, and much more
