[ in that moment, i swear we were infinite ]


i’ve forgotten how awful-wonderful the crushing feeling is. 

and how hard it is to be patient. and how easy it is to second-guess yourself, and the other person. 

i’ve forgotten the feeling that i get when i see that name pop up on my phone, and the feeling i get when it doesn’t. 

and how hard it is to cope with my brain, filling in unspoken words that may or may not be true. 

it makes sense, calling it a “crush.” 

it’s consuming. distracting. overwhelming. obsessive. it doesn’t go away easy. it takes all i’ve got to lift myself above it. 

but it’s rewarding. because whether things work out or not, i know i am able to feel. and that’s the best thing anyone can give me.
