Things My Exes Said // #184 Submitted by Anon
baby we need to stop trying to fix what isn’t broken
I love the rain. I love how it softens the outlines of things. The world becomes softly blurred, and I feel like I melt right into it.
Hanamoto Hagumi, Honey and Clover (via bl-ossomed)
We were at breakfast at that café down the street and you were sitting across the table from me drinking coffee.
You were laughing because I admitted to never having made a cup of coffee before and because as I stirred it, it almost spilled all over the table.
I laughed along with you and I sort of knew it then.
You were there across the table from me, looking at me with your ocean colored eyes and in that moment, all the empty, went away. Everything sort of just came together.
It made sense why every lover of mine before you ended up on a list titled, ‘we didn’t make it.’ It made sense why all the love that was in my hands before this slipped through my fingertips.
I’m beginning to believe that I was made to love you, because it has been the only thing I’ve done right.
Because it comes out effortless, because there is no not loving you days.
Because it’s there all the time.
I’m beginning to think that we were made to find each other, to give each other the kind of love that lasts, the kind of love you can keep always, even if sometimes you can’t put your hands on it, even if sometimes neither one of us says it. It’s okay because we both know it’s there. It’s always going to be.
