Once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl, and her laughter was a question he wanted to spend his whole life answering.

I want to wake up at 2am, and see the vague outline of your body against the darkness of my room. And I want to find your hands under the sheets ready for mine. And I want to feel your warm breath sticky against my skin. I want to fall back asleep wrapped up in you.

"A girl met a boy and she loved him more than moonlight and the starry sky, more than changing seasons or oversized sweaters, more than polaroids and postcards, old typewriters or record players, concert tickets and the text she highlighted in her favourite novels. She had come to love everything he was and everything she had made him into. Her heart swelled as the days passed by, she was so full of love for him and hope that she forgot to do what so many forget to do. She forgot to leave room to live herself"

In Japanese culture they have three ways of saying 'I love you'
They follow this rule so that the true essence and meaning of the words are preserved.

You say 'Daisuki' "大好き" for friends and the person that you like.
You say 'Aishiteru' "愛してる" for a more serious relationship.
And you say 'Koishiteru' "恋してる" to the person that you want to spend the rest of your life with.

I love the way that feels when you brush your fingers across my face. I love the feeling of our lips grazing. I will always love the way that it feels when you gently hold the back of my neck and pull me closer as we kiss. I love seeing the tenderness in your eyes, your true feelings leaking out unmasked.

I have never been happier than when I am with you. You make me feel more comfortable in my own skin, more relaxed in general. You make me feel truly alive.

True love cannot be defined by any means. It's a cluster of adjectives; it's crazy, passionate, complicated, painful - but most importantly, true love is real. It's that feeling of being inexplicably drawn to another person. Love isn't about finding someone who you can escape reality with. It's about finding someone who makes reality worthwhile.

To say that 'I want you'
would sound far too eager.

To say that 'I need you'
would sound far too desperate.

To say 'I love you'
would sound far too hasty.

So I remain silent,
hoping not to sound
too indifferent.

I want to someone to talk to
it may not sound like much
but its all I want of you

I want to never be alone

to never be forced to hear

the silent creaks of my home

I want someone to share with me

to give me the pieces of their day

through tiny conversations, and hearty stories

till there's nothing left to say

I want someone to stay with me

on those many cold nights

when the only thing that can keep me warm

are their sweet whispered delights

I want someone

it hardly matters who

to stick with me

and stay with me through

the transgressions of my days

the weaknesses of my soul

and share the same with me

make me feel whole 

I want to someone to talk to

someone's whose hand I can clutch

All I want is a true friend

Surely that isn't too much

Waking up after a dream of you, finding you aren't really there. Knowing that there's hardly any chance you are even thinking about me... It is one of the worst pains imaginable.

Something I have always dreamed of is a fairytale romance. To be swept off my feet by a dashing and handsome hero. To be gathered up in his arms and whisked away on wild adventures in distant lands.  To be courted, as was once proper, by a gentleman who is chivalrous and kind, yet also mysterious and wild.

The kind of romance that is usually only on the big screen, or better yet, found in between the pages of a book.

I may never have the fairytale romance that I dream of. But I can content myself with loving someone as fiercely as heavenly fire, and having their love returned just as ferociously.

I hate it when I dream of you and wake up alone.

"Dear future lover,
I hope our love is the kind that I don't even have to think about. I hope that I never have to convince myself to love any certain part of you because I hope it all comes naturally. I hope our love is the kind that is quiet on the outside but loud on the inside. I want to love you like the space between lightning and thunder - electrified and alive, but silent and knowing. And I want you to love me like the clouds love the rain. You're going to have to let me go on my own sometimes, but I will always come back, and we will always to two parts of the same thing."

But I love you
so much more
than just to the moon
and back.
