sudden sweetness.

mesmerizing
is the word I choose
when all is said and done
and I realize

I was never in love with him

we just worked together
in

awkward
wrong
forced

companionship

and I thought that was love.

Love has come so far
and is so foreign to me

From being small
and being in love
with that boy in pre school

To my first kiss
the love of friendship

To my first true love
whose presence is with me
all my days

To the person I married
foolishly thinking
"I can learn"

To a person
who I am actually
falling for.

As we grow in life
so does our love

shifting
moving
molding

We slowly become the people
that we were meant to be.
