I am alive

emmapitman:

 

when we say i love you

i think it sometimes means

I love you because

I love you because you

I love you because you make

I love you because you make me

I love you because you make me feel

I love you because you make me feel happy

 

but maybe when we are really lucky it’s more like this;

 

i love you because you make me feel happy

I love you because you make me feel

I love you because you make me

I love you because you make

I love you because

I love you

I love

you

 

ah when just ‘you’ are enough

just you sitting and eating cereal

or you turning left at the lights

or you looking for your keys

or boiling the kettle

or opening a carton of milk

or biting your nails

or even just sleeping!

the moments between when

you are trying to be great and noteworthy

i would love that to be enough

(empirically, i know very little about this subject so i’m just imagining)
