Impulse 53

I didn’t pick you to be my muse, the same way you don’t decide to fall in love. Love isn’t “alright, I’m ready to give everything I got for you.” Love is “no matter how hard I try, I can’t get your damn face out of my head, and I really want to see you right now.” So, don’t tell me to get over it, because this isn’t some mountain you can walk all over. This is climbing up falling stairs.
