Sometimes you will

wake up and realise

that the person you love

has become a person you loved.

Or perhaps you will grow old together

and reminisce happy memories

over warm cups of tea

in front of the fireplace.

Love either makes or breaks you.

It is up to you whether you

guard your heart

or toss it away.

Love is not a feeling,

it is a choice -

you either love hard

or not at all.

Because we know that

whilst heartbreak hurts,

there is also so much

love and joy.

So when everything else fails,

listen to love.

No matter how many times

someone breaks your heart

or cherishes it whole,

you learn more about yourself

and the way that you love.

That was why he still believed in love.
