"Her sentences were icebergs, with just the tip of her thought coming out of her mouth, and the rest kept up in her head, which I was starting to think was more and more beautiful the longer I looked at her."
Our bad is someones dream come true. I didn't think my ugly bad would ever make someone smile and yet he took all the things I thought were so ugly and shined into me and made me find the beauty in them or maybe just realize they didn't own me anymore. That I had a different story to tell.
I had to own my bad before I could ever let someone shine on them and come to think of it. I am sure others tried. It was just that their light wasn't perfect for me at that time. His was and still is and over time. I have forgotten the ugly toe to toe stories I used to be able to spout off at a moments notice. Somehow they got lost in the everyday of just being ok and happy. You will find that. Your soul is so precious and close.
I havent commented before but, this was beautifully true and heartbreaking.
