Her hand is soft. I can’t seem to let go of it. Her arm is soft. I can’t stop touching it. My heart is soft. I can’t seem to get mad at her.

He’s right beside me and I can’t stop looking at him. He’s holding my hand. I don’t want to lose him. He’s everything to me. He’s something I didn’t expect. Comfortable silence.

inadequately adequate
It has flaws, but what does that matter when it comes to matters of the heart? We love what we love. Reason does not enter into it. In many ways, unwise love is the truest love. Anyone can love a thing because. That’s as easy as putting a penny in your pocket. But to love something despite. To know the flaws and love them too. That is rare and pure and perfect.
