i used to think i overdramatized when i got a crush, or started dating someone, or what have you.
but then it struck me: fuck everyone who doesn't.
because you should. you should write poetry about her like foroud does. it should squeeze your heart and make it feel three sizes too small, should take your breath away, should make you smile uncontrollably, and most other times when similarly alarming symptoms occur you make an appointment with the doctor.
so if you have a girlfriend or a boyfriend, go on dates. write her poetry, write her songs and notes, write her anything, hold her, sing to her, let everyone else just fuzz into the background, and don't be ashamed about it. don't be private about it. cook her things. read her things. make funny faces next to her and tell your best friend she's the best thing that ever happened to you and then look at her that way. make her the music as long as the music lasts.
because what less as humans do we deserve?
what about that quiet love, you ask. well, darling, when is anything ever quiet?? if you're painting it in complete silence, that still seems loud as ever.
anyway, just some sunday morning thoughts.
for the future reference, you might never hear my voice, but i would always be loud. promise. (you know, prospectively speaking).
