caution: handle with care
in these past few weeks that i have been "super vacation-ing" with my boyfriend in the states, a lot of different things have crossed my mind. i feel like what little time i have to think to myself, my thoughts have become intensified by what seems like millions... and with that i can finally find the point of interest to write something.
when you commit yourself to a relationship, you are inviting the most delicate, fragile thing ever created between two people. you are not just dedicating yourself to a person, you are creating a thing that is almost sacred because it is exclusive between you and yours only.... and that is scary. i truly believe some people have no idea what they not only commit to, but create in the process, and try to throw away these relationships.
this beautiful thing you created, made up of words you said, tiny exchanges that no one else will ever feel or provide in the same way, songs that defined moments, moments that defined you, moments that defined them, and moments that re-created the both of you without either one of you even knowing it. this precious thing, is made up of time, hours compensated for thinking rather than sleeping, tears, fights. incredible instances where you feel like you fall in love all over again with this person who you feel like you've always loved. the spot on your collarbone that he kisses contributes to this thing, and the way you touch the back of his neck does too.
all these million little things that make up one huge thing, and some people (guilty, used to do this) just act like real love is disposable and people you fall in love with are easily replaceable. like it's just the person that is the issue, not all the million things that happened when you were with them.
there's a difference between loving someone and being with them. you can love them recklessly, but you can't be with them recklessly.
