I thought that there was only one kind of love, one that developed instantaneously and struck you like a bolt of lightning, made you irrational and selfish like it did my parents. I realized too late that love took different forms and the one we had He cupped her face. It was there, the first day we met, growing gradually from friendship into whats inside my heart now. He brought her hand to his chest. Its there, steady, constant, making my heart beat for you, making my heart race when youre near, making my heart sing like a goddamn canary when youre happy. I never thought this kind of love existed until I had lost you.
