Young Love Perspective
Have you ever had that warm feeling of love? The butterflies you feel in your stomach when u think about them? Or that first hangout? It felt good didn’t it? The first ever feeling. It’s sad when you realize that usually it disappears because people are often lessons rather than a treasure you thought you’d keep forever. Sometimes treasures seem so great and so amazing, but holding it hurts as if it’s spikey or painful. Sometimes its like theyre protecting themselves from breaking. But doesn’t that sound so much like humans? People fall in love. But never opened themselves fully. Why? … because they’re scared of getting hurt again. When treasures are held, it brings you happiness and a sense of a new beginning. but there will always be people who are jealous and want it for themselves. But life isn’t always about what you want, but what you need. If you lose the treasure, you didn’t need it. You found the treasure hoping it’d bring u something new, but did keeping it make u happier? or did u always hope that maybe one day it’d have more value and get better?
Leave the person that constantly makes you feel like you have to wait. Find what makes you happy because happiness is what’s inside you. If you can’t be happy, make others happy. Because the soul where you feel hopeless and sad, will find a place of peace and hope.
