Love does not hurt any less when you get older. In fact it is from my personal experience that it tends to hurt more

i can feel it. i can feel it course through my veins. such simplicity. such preciseness. no one can hope to be able to describe love quite perfectly, however, it is indeed the individuals opinion and attempt that establish the sheer beauty of love.

classic. good ol classic. love.
