Love feels like sitting in the passenger side while I show my boyfriend my favorite songs for the first time and he smiles, and my heart leaps; the warmth of our hands together as we sit together in Church for the first time.

The smell of love is two things to me: the memory of my boyfriend's scent when he left for home, and the scent of my favorite iced coffee on his breath as we shared our first kiss.

I see so much in love, especially with my boyfriend... walking around the park I grew up going to and watching the ducks and geese swim in the lake. The beauty of nature is something that we love to see, and I feel it strengthens our bond.

I hear and find so much love in music; if I share music with you, I see it as sharing a piece of my heart and soul. They say eyes are windows to the soul, and maybe they are, but music is as well.

Love tastes like caramel, vanilla, and whipped cream on my boyfriend's lips and breath as we share our first kiss, the remnants of my favorite iced coffee, dancing between us.
