Dreams Quote by Pittacus Lore
““Being in love is a very strange thing. Your thoughts constantly drift towards this other person, no matter what you‚Äôre doing. You could be reaching for a glass in the cupboard or brushing your teeth or listening to someone tell a story, and your mind will just start drifting towards their face, their hair, the way they smell, wondering what they‚Äôll wear, and what they‚Äôll say the next time they see you. And on top of the constant dream state you‚Äôre in, your stomach feels like it‚Äôs connected to a bungee cord, and it bounces and bounces around for hours until it finally lodges itself next to your heart.””
