From Alex DeLeon's Blog: love. when you fall in love. you fall hard. we’re human we...
love.
when you fall in love. you fall hard. we’re human we can’t help it. when you love someone, in a way you are trading hearts. you unzip your chest, reach for the heart of your loved and slowly insert it to yours, hoping to lock it away for a forever or two. most of us know the feeling. or maybe not. love is a curiously sly cat. love is falling, but never touching the ground. love is falling up. coincidentally when sitting down to write out each chapter of my life, i always seem to spit out the same bunches of y’s, o’s, and u’s. you find the person you love and it’s like a car crash. life turns to slow motion. it starts with the loss of breath, slowly makes your insides tingles, and ends with your cheeks being pulled up and away..almost like the puppet master himself is tugging at the strings connected to the corners of your mouth. love is your heart smiling in a monumental way. you start spending time with the person you care for and it only gets better. your nose starts to scrunch your nose a lot more…when you laugh, you laugh differently than you ever had before..because this time it’s real. you become attached to living life horizontally, and hell…you even start watching different tv shows and trying foods that you swore on the bible itself you’d never try. yes..maybe even colliflower. why do we fall in love? is it because we don’t want to be alone? can we help it at all? can love be influenced? whatever and however this little guy works…the job almost always gets done until your slow dancing in the kitchen listening to people with far better class, style, and voices sing to you about songs that make you feel like maybe somewhere in this world there is a niche you can finally fit happily into. and you know what? there might even be space for two.
you think about them everyday. you’ve hung all of your memories around all over your mind’s fridge with cute little magnets. you saved the tree bark from the tree you kissed them against. you’ve kept the movie stubs where you snuck out and caught a late night flick about everlasting love. remember walking out and telling them how the love in the movie was nothing compared to the one that you two shared? you hear their voices in the static between the radio stations that play the same 10 songs that they did three months ago. you see their face in your eyes when you look into the mirror for sympathy on the bi-daily basis. loving them was like swinging on a tire swing. hearing their voice sing into your ear was honestly the glue that held your bones together. you’d rather be able to lay under the night and just replay “us” in your head and smile to yourself than hold anyone else. you know it might not last forever. but who is to say forever starts or ends today? just like an old lamp, when the sun burns out…you just have to put a new lightbulb in. i don’t know what this all means..or what i’m really saying. i just know that this world has become so materialistic and none of that matters. my dad taught me my whole life that love is the only thing that matters in the end. we are all going through rough times…but things will get better. find someone that shines through it all. i’m still looking for that. i’m just like you guys. i want the ocean eyes. the california mind. the framed angel sky. i know it may take some time…but one day..i’m going to meet a girl who’s smile i use to speak, and though coins might make the clocks tick, love makes the hearts beat.
i wish you all love and happiness in this life. one in each hand.
goodnight.

i feel a little bit related with some things, its awesome the way that you told the things, i cant even imagine how lucky the girl who will be with you will be. and i mean it you know, im not the kind of girl that say this stuff just for saying, i mean every single word that im saying, youre awesome and you deserve a girl who appreciate all your ways, im pretty sure that she would... so good luck! and seriously i mean it.

Your words made me smile and want to cry at the same time......However I also have something to say if you don't mind.....Hell who knows my 2 cents may be worth something....When you love someone sometimes you don't know it until you've lost them and it hurts even more to know that you've been betrayed for your feelings and that you were used for being a good person with a big heart and the ability to believe in people. Since we are talking about love here, what I'm trying to say is that it is innocent and has the ability to forgive something before it's been done, and the ability to forgive someone before they hurt you......And when you lose it, you really haven't because love changes you.....It makes you a different person than you were before you met that person. And you will never be the same again. What's surprising is that I know all this and I'm only seventeen.....Just because you can't be with someone for any reason doesn't mean that you won't still love them, it just means you love them enough and care enough about yourself to let them go...b/c sometimes you have to

... & suddenly I feel like there's hope. :)
Thank you for writing this Alex. Really truely. You have so much hope that you're going to find someone especially for you, even though you've been hurt before. So, why shouldn't I have the same hope? The same dream?
Thank you.
XO.
