if you asked me to describe how i fell in love with you, i don’t think i could give you a concrete answer the truth is, i don’t have one, because it didn’t hit me on sight, didn’t strike me like a meteor no one saw coming i fell in love with you like honey in the summertime, like walking on a long stretch of road with no end in sight i fell in love with you the way my sister learned how to ride a bike; with lots of bruises, lots of picking myself up, but feeling like it was worth it in the end falling in love with you, didn’t feel like falling; it felt like standing up after getting hit hard and dusting myself off, like understanding why some people are named after flowers, like watching you bloom so no, i can’t pinpoint the time and place i fell in love with you but i can tell you exactly how it felt when i did
