listen to me. the best kinds of love unfold on bedroom floors where neither of you are touching. listen to me. there’s something about the distance, the waiting. it happens in the spaces between your hands, the pinks of your cheeks. it happens when you are laughing and she can’t get her eyes off of you. you don’t see it, but there is this soft thing growing in the midst of all the stillness.

i’m feeling this devotion, touching your emotion
“My grandmother once told me, ‘Relationships are work, honey, and they aren’t 50/50. Some days when I get up I only feel like giving 10%, then your granddaddy has to give 90% that day. But there is always 100% love.”

“You said, he loves you as much as you love him. Then, why the both of you are not still together?” he asked.
“We both love each other. Yes, yes. And I’m not really sure why we’re not still together.” she answered very carefully as if the words she said hurt her heart like knives cutting through her veins. “Some may say it’s because of our priorities in life. But some may say that it’s not yet the perfect time. But who the hell really knows? Is it me? Is it him? I don’t know. I don’t even understand. They say that opposites do attract each other, while same signs do otherwise. We’re like walking on parallel lines with an infinite spaces in between, that even if we run faster, we will never bump on each other at the finish line. No matter how hard we try.”
