She Was Loved.
A Story in 100 Words.
Love
A Story in 100 Words.
Love is building the muscle memory of the heart.
It takes time.
It weakens even as it strengthens.
Like all muscles, as you exercise your heart, it will ache, and hurt.
Like all exercises, you push through the ache, the hurt, knowing you will be stronger.
My heart is stronger because of her.
My ache is I wish it would’ve grown stronger with her.
Should one ever ask me if the heart is a muscle — I will tell them about loving her.
Should she ever stop to think about me, I hope she knows — she was loved.
She is loved.
The 100 words above are:
About no one.
For no one.
About everyone.
For everyone.
Those words are for the sappy, the silly, and the love torn who walk among us.
Those words are for the gym rats of love.*
*= All of this is to announce my new band — The Gym Rats of Love. Our debut album, Protein Powder For Your Heart, drops soon-ish.
