Everyone talks about love at first sight.
The kind of love that leaves butterflies in your stomach. The love that makes you laugh and smile nervously. The instant love where you just know they are the one and you feel like your floating.
No one talks about the slow love.
The love that goes unnoticed for years. The love with laughs and smiles and jokes that are just, comfortable and honest. The love you didn’t know was there until it dawns on you in the middle of a conversation.
No one talks about the love with the right person at the wrong time.
The love that came to soon or was realized to late.
No one seems to mention the unspoken love.
The love buried deep for fear of rejection.
What about the love that didn’t last, the love that shatters, the love forgotten or lost or taken?
The love buried by pride or pain.
Everyone talks of love; yet no one talks of those.
Aren’t those true love too?
