tides

i have to say something really quick before i go do homework all day.

crushes are like waves. maybe even love is like a wave. if you're at the beginning, where it builds and builds and you find yourself dangerously tumbling with affection and irrationality-- well then--


you just have to wait until it crests, and then neatly washes away.


so people should just be patient. don't fight the falling. if it's inconvenient, tolerate the madness because everything has to run its due course.

fevers break, but not before they break.

and i've written about this quite a few times, but it bears reminding when times get frustrating. when it feels like you fell in love because you fell in infatuation so hard. quel cauchemar.

but perhaps love, real love, is like the sun.
