Love, I guess

I am in love with you.
I've never felt like this before
Never so happy
Never so safe
Never so comfortable.

I always associated love with fireworks
That one moment
When "the one" would kiss me
And it'd be magical
And fantastic
And we'd be instantly in love and get married and have babies.

But that's not love
That moment fades
It's magical, sure, and it's amazing
But that's a moment.
Love grows;
Love is that little smile that plays around your lips when we're together
Love is watching a film that you don't like because you're watching it with me
Love is missing you before you're gone.
Love isn't about one moment

Love is a mixture of moments. And you're not even in all of them.

Love is scary, and strong, and gradual.
But love is magical.
