(picture creds mine)
they told me they weren't ready.
peaches take time, time to grow. time to ripen.
they told me that i would find them bitter.
but i took one anyway.
i stole it, and took it outside into the sun that had sweetened it, and the juice ran between my fingers.
it was lovely.
so when i met you, they told me you weren't ready.
people take time, time to grow. time to ripen.
they told me i would find you bitter.
but i smiled at you anyway.
i stole your name, whispered it to you when you least expected it, and i realized that you knew mine too.
it was lovely.
you were just what i needed you to be. ♥

ADELAIDE. I think she's physically incapable of ever writing anything less than perfection.
