for-ever.

when forever ceases to be just a bunch of letters...
when it ceases to be a vague insincere question...
and when you stop thinking of it with a hard knot of unsure desires in your chest...
but instead
forever becomes a calm breathing and warm hands wrapped around you...
and when forever turns into a hot cup of coffee in the morning...
and a few million drinks drank on the floor of your rented flat...
and endless talks about life until all the bars are closed...
that is exactly when
you realise you've found
true love.
