love is not always easy (last part)

May 22, 2022 03:56 - 13 minutes - 12.4 MB

gotta be honest with you, i don't know much about love. maybe i do, but i don't always know how to put it into words. the reason why i don't talk about it that much is because i'm terribly not good at explaining what i think of love. but what i do know is maybe it's about thinking of someone with every song you play, maybe it's about waking up in the morning and feeling excited to talk to your person, or maybe it's also about sitting with discomfort and just listening to each other. maybe it'...
