““the details of anything you love are always what is most thrilling, most poignant, most important. i loved her as she rose from bed and fell back against it again, and all she did in-between. when you love someone you accept them, you become them in a way, and all they do forms into you. their mannerisms turn into truth- the way she holds her favorite coffee mug, the way she laughs, the way she smells, the way her lips curl after certain words. all of the simple things suddenly become gigantic things and light up the world before you like a flame thrown into the clouds. what a breathtaking display. the way the earth begins to dissolve in your periphery and a human being replaces it. no matter what they tell you- a person is a universe when truly loved and anything less is not love at all.””
