The last time I fell in love, utterly and irrevocably, I stayed for a year and a half. I spent the final five months, deciding on the finale. And once the curtains closed, two years flew by and I didn’t fall again.

Why do we call it falling in love when one of the greatest fears I’ve ever witnessed is falling?

In love

In status

In power

-

Downfall,

Fall down

-

Is it the falling or what you fall into it?

-

What is love?

Which definition is defining?

-

Dictionary?

Bible?

Romantic novels?

Hopeless romantic?

Whitney?

-

I want to know what love is too.
