Being in love Quote by iloveyou
“I'm not begging you to love me, I'm not really even asking you. But isn't it alright. If I cherish that hope in my heart? If I dream of just holding your hand. It will hurt me - not you. I will try to keep my eyes from shining when they see you. And I promise, I will try not to smile a special smile when you say hello.. But please.. Don't ask me not to love you..”
