what even is love? all i know is i want a relationship so bad it genuinely hurts and makes me sick to my stomach. just to feel the emotion of love with someone else seems delectable. to be held in someone's arms, to be hugged and never fear being forgotten. to dance in the snow, or under the stars. to have someone to be with on your darkest days. someone to love. how can i possibly miss a feeling i've never known? i'm not sure but i need it. seeing happy couples around me makes me want to feel all the love and emotion. being attached, falling, love love love. what even is love? is it someone to watch movies with me, someone who doesnt get sick of my existence? or is it simply a concept. something that is not real, only seen on movies. it's like missing someone you've never met. needing them, wanting their support, other people feeling the one thing you need most. i mean i can't be one to talk about love when the only type i've ever had was friendly and family love. what even is love? it might take awhile for me to know but for now i'm going to stick with the movies and books, hope one day to romanticize someone i love and never let go.
