LACUNA

"if ignorance is bliss so does what i feel for love. i want to grasp and hug it tight to me like it's going to leave me - yes, silly i know but it's just a thought. i want someone to hold my hands while we're walking on a beach, strolling, just enjoying the view 'til sunset and admire each other. i want late night conversations where we'll just talk about anything and not getting tired of it. i want someone to text me first asking if i'm fine or how's my day going. like our parents' love when they're young and reckless." she said to me, her bright brown eyes spark with enthusiasm. 

everything about her was perfect enough for me. if only she knew, if only.
