So.

I haven't posted something in sooooooooooo long, it seems like.

So, here I am. Posting something, although I'm not too sure what yet.

My letters will continue, but the person I want to write to is...well...Let's just say that he...I mean...well...never mind.

For now, here is a piece I wrote a while back.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There’s this thing about love that everyone wants; that everyone craves. Love is something indescribable, something that makes everyone happy. There are times when love brings you down, but you can always get back up. And, eventually, because of love, you’re soaring high above everyone else. You’re the happiest anyone could ever possibly be. You think it would be impossible for anyone else to love anyone or anything so much.

Love is funny because it seems to give you super powers. Whenever the person you love is near, your heart flutters like a butterfly with broken wings. There’s no way to stop it. Or whenever they’re away from you, you still seem to know where they are, as if you have some kind of radar. You just know, and you always want to be with them wherever they are. There’s always that warm, fuzzy feeling whenever they are close to you, and it doesn’t ever seem to go away. Hearing their laugh is listening to your favorite song. You memorize it, you cherish it, and you wish you could have it forever. Whenever they touch you, it’s an out of body sensation. Your skin starts to tingle and you never want them to let go of you. And with every step you take to be closer to that person, they always seem that much further away. No matter how close you get to them, there always seems to be something new about the person you want to know that you’ve never known before. That’s the beauty of it. And, yes, there is always that sense of losing them, but you don’t have to worry about that. It’s that moment, right then and there, that really matters. All you want to do is live in that moment forever.

When you’re in love, here’s my advice: Love someone who loves you more than you love them. That way, they will never want to leave you or hurt you. And because of that, you’ll always love them, no matter what. And, even though it seems impossible, make sure they feel that you love them more than they love you. Because then you both never want to leave, and you won’t. You will both always have each other forever.

So...I don't like this piece much anymore. But I still believe what it says. I mean, even if it isn't love, and you just like someone. I feel like most of this does happen.

I don't understand people who can just throw the words "I love you" around like it's normal to say it. Because, for me, it takes a lot to say those words with the true, powerful meaning behind them.

I mean, the first time I say "I love you" to someone I've never said it to before, and I really, truly love them, I start shaking. It's almost as if those words are making me shake. It's like something is taking over my body. I don't know. It's weird.

Then again, maybe it's not.

I guess it's something people find on their own. The power of those words, I mean.

And so, I end with this:

"You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep at night because reality is finally better than your dreams." - Dr. Seuss...I love that man.
