he didn’t give me butterflies — he gave me peace. not a storm in my chest, but a soft fire in winter. my heart still races, but it’s not fear — it’s home.

"Your smile is like honey drizzling tickles onto my heart with warm, gooey love.."

Your smile warms the soul like a nice hot cup of coffee in the morning - eUë

The temperature's been in the negatives for over a week where I go to school, and today it just finally hit double digits in the positives. When I went outside it felt NICE out. Nice! 12 degrees is nice? I chuckled to myself, figuring that a 15 degree jump would indeed feel warmer, even if the resulting temperature is still what I would consider way too cold. When you think about it, love can be like that too. If you've had no-good, awful, can-you-even-justify-calling-it love, then the most basic acts of kindness feel like treasures. My best guy friend has no romantic feelings toward me, yet I feel infinitely more loved by him than I retroactively do by any of my exes. He truly actively loves me more, loves me better than they ever did, and in a lot of ways one could objectively say he goes above and beyond in our friendship, but to him this just seems like the normal thing to do. This is how you take care of your friends. This is what you do for people. After many winter storms of not-love in the negatives, even the littlest bit of real love feels like the most gorgeous of spring days. But I must remember that the love I get from him is not quite the love I'm seeking. Just feeling like it's 75 degrees does not in fact make it 75 degrees, and if I dress like it is now I'll suffer greatly. Rather, this pure friendlove can be the promise that there is hope for true romantic love in the future.

Tempered Heart
