Love is...

how the waves kiss the seashore despite being sent away each time (unwavering.)

how my mind keeps wandering back to you all the time (ridiculous.)

the number of times I would give my life for you (selflessness.)

the distance I would run to get to you (determined.)

the height I would climb just to get you (persevering.)

the number of times I woke up crying because I dreamt of you (painful).
