heroless endeavor

I have been going through my poem/quote books that I've written in and I came upon one of my favorite poems I read in high school. The author in unknown. ...And they made believe it was summer even though it was the middle of December. He leaned over and whispered, we can pretend there's an orange tress growing in the backyard if it makes you feel any better... She just stared off into what he knew was the place she went when it hurt. He held her tighter even though he knew he'd lost her. He kept his faith that someday her whole heart could be his. Racing through rich dark green fields with bare feet and high hopes, he could always recall these memories when it hurt. He slowly got up and before releasing her hand and turning to leave, he stared straight into her eyes but she was still somewhere far away, and once again whispered slowly, "we can pretend there's an orange tress growing in the backyard"...

weheartit I want to be that quote that you never forget. The reason you check your phone a million times, just to see if I called. Can I be the reason for your smile Or why you can't seem to figure out what to wear. I want every love song to remind you of me. I want the distance between us to make you anticipate us being reunited. The sleepless nights.. I want those to be because of me too. I want to roam your dreams and live in your memory. Perhaps you can long for my voice with every passing minute. When you hear or read a story about lovers and their fight to be together.. Just know thats about us. If that movie comes on, may it remind you of me. I want THAT restaurant to make you smile.. not because it's so good, but because you see me there, even when I'm not. I want you to smile at the most awkward moments because you remember something we did together. I want all of that for you because I get all of those things. And if you get them, well maybe that means you love ...
