And now I….
Wish for your joy when I see a pair of magpies;
Bring up your name in every conversation I have;
Save cheesy poetry to share with you some day;
Want to be one of the reasons you smile every day;
Read your horoscope and match it to mine;
Long for you on the days we don’t speak;
Count down days till I see you again;
Think of you the first thing in the morning;
Wonder if you lay in bed thinking about me too;
Daydream about spending my life with you;
Have a new goal – to be your peace.

It’s been a while since I’ve wanted to write something romantic/cheesy. I’ve been running away from these emotions for a long while. But this is me trying to be a little bit more vulnerable, AS vulnerable AS possible.
How do you protect yourself from hurt that inevitably follows love like a shadow?
PS: thank you for all your lovely messages on my last post I will get to replying to them over this weekend. ❤️

Love’s shadow is always there but sometimes the light it brings is worth the risk🩷

I guess it’s accepting that hurt could follow but choosing to have hope that maybe that love will heal you more than it will destroy you

My wife and I have been married for 39 years, so your question isn’t exactly directed at people like me. Yet, I had my share of girlfriends before I discovered my future wife. When we get invested in someone, it’s going to hurt when our feelings aren’t reciprocated. Still, as an eternal optimist, to me it was worth taking that risk.
