He is love.

Many people have that special person in their life that will be there for them regardless of the circumstance. That one person to see you for who you really are, be there for you when you're hurting, be the hand to hold, and wipe away the tears from your face. Not only is that person there for you in the times that you need them most but they're also there for you in the most unexpected times when you feel like you can conquer life alone. I have this person, and I take him for granted. The truth is, is that I find myself falling more and more for this person. I guess what I'm trying to say is that don't let those good people slide by. Don't take them for granted like I have and am doing. Because life is too short to let the one's that take your breathe away slip right by. I met this person two years ago, his smile caught my eye. Every waking moment he's been there for me. He cares about me deeply. It's quite lovely. So why do I take him for granted? Why do I not listen to his loving advice and always do things that only harm myself and are not beneficial to my well-being? The answer lies in this, it's that I am so comforted by him, and that I know he's always going to be here that I just do what I want....even if it's the wrong choice. I'm selfish. How pathetic am I?

I realize though what it means to truly love someone. He has been the one to tell me it's all going to be okay. Even if I feel like all hope has been lost. The truth is. I need him more than ever....but I feel like before long he will be gone. If I want to change, I guess I need to start now. Love is being there for the girl that calls you at 2am. Love is holding her and telling her it's ok. Love is leaving roses on her doorstep. Love is making sure I'm ok. Love....is loving the girl unconditional that has done everything BUT making you proud. So, people, if you have this person.....and you love them. Don't let them slip by. Please, don't.

Love....is fragile......
