It usually begins slow
till you start talking everyday
the early morning messages
and phone calls for hours
you become friends first
then you start thinking of what should come next
I becomes “we” and “us”
and you can’t help but feel that maybe this is it; love
you’re happy
and you think you’re in love
but along the line
something happens
that you can’t explain
the calls stop
and sometimes a week goes by
without hearing from each other
and just like that
you become strangers
and life goes on
until another one comes your way.
Can you relate? Did you ever try to figure out what happened?

One sign you might be falling in love is that you keep talking. Scientists say that people fall in love after exchanging 168 text messages at “odd” hours. 😀 I don’t know if that is true. However, one sign you are falling apart is that you slowly or abruptly stop talking. The love wheels are greased by continuous healthy communication.
This is an amazing poem .🖤
Happy Thanksgiving 🧡

😂😂😂 @ 168 text messages at “odd” hours. But if it was “love” in the first place, why did you fall apart at all? One person should bring things back to the way they were before🤷🏻♀️
Thank you!!!
Happy Thanksgiving to you too, eat for two cos we don’t celebrate here.

They are afraid to let go of past and fall again. No trust. Too much glitter out there and someone else caught them (temporarily again).
