Because we are all looking for the complete definition of love (Beau Sia)

Love is not the flowers, the dinner dates or how many movies we've seen. It's not the number of days we've been official, the surprise visits or the good morning texts.
Love is the look in his eyes as I'm leaving his house, the touch of his bare, ink-covered skin on mine, and the way he says that he'll never leave.
