The love that makes you get out of bed.

With a lover that can't get out of your head.

Could this be it?

Is this the love that makes your heart skip a beat?

The love that takes you off your feet?

The love that makes you feel free?

Could this be it?

The love that betrays your trust?

The lover that gives into lust?

The lover that leaves you in the dust...

Could this be it?

Lost Waves
"DANIEL" That's the last thing I heard before I went under. My father had always told me, "Don't be a hero." But for her, she was more than just my hero. She was the air in my lungs. She was the light of my day. She brought color to my life. How can I call myself a man if I let the love of my life get bashed by such rogue waves without lifting a finger? The waves didn't take long to give me the same treatment as they did her. But who would I be if I gave in now? I pushed and pushed and pushed. Until I felt like I was on the verge of breaking. Until my lungs filled with water. Until the burning turned into numbness. Until the tears no longer flowed. Finally, my hand grasped hers. But why does she feel so cold? Why couldn't I have been the hero she was to me, even if only for a second?

I went to send a message today to someone I’ve known for half my life. We went to high school together. I’ve known them since elementary or maybe middle school. We haven’t talked in years, not since 2023, but I didn’t think there was any bad blood. So I pulled up their profile and got ready to reach out.
