“It's as if the world stops. The moment that sense of what it meant to be loved by someone so unique, so rare, so different.. hits you. Suddenly, the walls you seem to have pulled down are left crumbled in a heap of dust and rubble so jagged, so dry and inanimate. That rawness of what you let in…” quote by Jonathan Ong

““It's as if the world stops. The moment that sense of what it meant to be loved by someone so unique, so rare, so different.. hits you. Suddenly, the walls you seem to have pulled down are left crumbled in a heap of dust and rubble so jagged, so dry and inanimate. That rawness of what you let in just radiates in the memories you can recall at a moment's notice. A smell or a sight brings a smile to your face as you fathom the finer points of what was right, what was good and what made you both happy. Thats when you realise for what it's worth, what you had was real. It's yours and her's to keep. Ever so gently locked away in the mind of your heart and head of your soul. You've grown. You've loved. You've given the moment the love it deserved and from that... you've grown. You've grown to let more love in should it find you, if ever so carefully. You must only look back at it and smile, for love made you the person you are now, today. Should it find you again, you don't know; but you will be open to it. Just like you were before. She'll always be a part of you. She’ll be a part of what you are today, what made you grow and what made you love, her.””
