It's when the cocoons have hatched, releasing thousands of butterfliesflying all around inside your stomachexpanding it to levels you never dreamed ofsending you into a euphoric ecstasy of happiness and pleasure
It's when you see the imperfectionsbut you choose to look past thembecause they seem so insignificantbecause inner beauty shines through like a wave of summer sunset
It's when you feel that comforting warmth of another bodyigniting the release of brain chemicals and hormones gliding through your body filling in the gaps and spacesthat remain after years of agonizing, painful, emptiness
It's when after years of searchingyou find the one thing that makes you feel completethe final piece to your unfinished puzzlethe last missing ingredient of your emotional pie
It's love.
