love comes without a warning you showed up when i almost gave up on love. i had grown tired of hoping and felt foolish for believing that something gentle and genuine could still find me, so i began to accept the idea of being alone. i was already learning to embrace the stillness of solitude. then you came quietly, without forcing anything, and somehow made me forget all the moments i had to endure on my own. you held my heart with so much care, like it was meant to rest in your hands, like every crack and fragile part was already familiar to you. it's like your hands were shaped to hold mine. you didn't rush me, nor ask me to give more than i was ready to give, and you never made me feel like i was lacking anything. you just stayed, and i realized that love doesn't always come when planned. sometimes, it arrives in the most beautiful way, when you least expect it right at your door.
