love

All you need is Love, and Love is all you need.

Love on Life Support
She sat on the bathroom floor, trying not to make a sound. Her muffled cries were incredibly depressing. Another fight, more hurtful words exchanged. She wished she could really know what was going through his head.

Flames
Church bells ring and somehow my heartbeat is in synchronization with them. Today is my big day… I knew this day would come, but I always thought I’d be walking down the aisle to someone different.

Forever or Never
When I was 11, this boy moved in across the street. I was in my house the first time I was him, I was in my house. I don't remember what I was doing, but I remember thinking he was very cute. He had brown hair that hung down into his eyes, that sort of typical 12-year-old boy kind of hair. It was almost winter, so he was wearing this puffy blue coat. I remember a lot of minute details from our time together.

Some Words to a Girl
So here are all the basics you should probably know before reading. First things first: I've never dated anyone. I've never been in a relationship. I've never felt loved by anyone other than relatives. And I've never taken much interest in girls.

Haunted
She sat before the large, opened casket as tears slowly streamed down her face. He lie still, his hands folded over his stomach and his eyes closed. She watched him cautiously, waiting to see the steady rise and fall of his chest. He's not breathing, Amelia, she thought to herself. He's dead. Her mother wrapped her arm around her waist and heaved a sigh as she rested her head on her mother's shoulder and closed her eyes.

A Chance Encounter - Part 2
After about an hour of driving we finally made it to the convention center downtown. We parked in the lot closest to the entrance and headed inside. “Wow! Can you believe we’re actually here?!” Kaitlyn’s excitement was starting to be contagious. I felt like I just might enjoy the day after all. “Kait, where is Jack’s meet & greet?” Abbie asked.

Seasonable
With leaves falling everywhere and the wind getting sharper, I tend to think of him more. Snow and all its different variations, sugar with a little coffee and cream, checkered pajama bottoms, all of it ties back to him. I tell myself yearly that I have to let him go, that he can't consume my thoughts every day of every season. But it seems the only freedom I have from him is the summer.

Colorless
The flowers died on Monday. The nurses tried to take them away, but I wouldn’t let them. How could I? He brought them for me. He knew how dark and lonely this room had become for me. He knew I was feeling low. So he brought me a little something to make me smile.

I Am in Love
So, love. You imagine hearts and flowers, cuddles, gifts and the like, but it's not all that easy. I'm currently in a relationship that is just over a year old now, so still fairly new. I love my boyfriend. The first time I met him I knew I was going to fall for him, the smile, the laugh, his general atmosphere instantly drew me in. Three months later, we became official. I now can't imagine my life without him, which is a scary feeling. I'm still young and will supposedly have many relationships in my time, which scares me. He won't always be there?

A Chance Encounter - Part 1
Months had passed since his funeral. The furthest I had attempted to venture out of my house was work. I sheltered myself from the outside world, hoping that the pain would slowly disappear and I could just move on with my life. Every offer to go out scared me; I turned into a hermit and was becoming more and more comfortable with never seeing another human being again. I guess it was just a defense mechanism. I never used to be like-well, no, I was, but not to the same extent. My anxiety always kept me a little on edge about the world around me, but this, this was on a whole different level.

Makes Me Think All I See Ruins Around Me Knocking the Wind out of Me
I think about you fairly often. Almost every day. It's not love. It can't be. I've dreamt about you before though you have no idea.
