They spent the afternoons lounging together, tangled and daydreaming—allowing their future aspirations to tie themselves to one another. They made so many plans in those soft moments, too young to accept the monkey wrench of natural chaos the future would inevitably throw into their picture perfect plans. They had plans for the future but did not know the future had plans for them.

Tonal Tuesday: everyday i fall in love with you hundred of times
Moon-eyes (something about a big pizza pie)—that’s amoré. Millions of tiny moments that lump in to long stretches—6 years so far, comprised of delicate minutia.
