Beat heart beat

just can't bring myself to feel anything. The best are emotion leaks from a tap shut tight. I wonder if it's not the right guy or just me. And I'm thinking it's me. Where's the knight in shining amor on a white horse coming along to give the kiss that breaks the spell of lock emotions? Right. fairy tales don't exist in real life.

  1. not quite sure of the context you wrote in, but if it's the falling in love - the pitter-pattering of the heart and the frenzied fluttering of butterflies in the stomach as such - then i suppose love doesn't often happen that way.

    most people don't 'fall' in love; they inch in tentatively, or sink slowly in unknowingly. 'fall' suggests a dramatic, singularly memorable event - like a car crash or a skiing accident - but love usually isn't. love can - and should - be an ordinary thing; it's good when it happens in a quiet, prosaic manner.

    except, of course, when you're an adrenaline junkie.
