it happened quietly, and then all at once.
no warning, no careful unfolding—just a sudden shift where everything became you.
i didn’t know love could feel like this. sharp and soft at the same time. overwhelming in its innocence.
every glance felt like a secret. every word you spoke stayed with me longer than it should have.
i think first love is less about the person and more about the awakening. the realization that your heart is capable of something vast and uncontrollable.
you were the first door. the first light. the first proof.
and even if time carries us elsewhere, i will always remember who taught my heart how to open.
truly yours,
Alice
