For Gold

You know, how sometimes it's like you love that person so much that it physically hurts? It feels like from the inside, the love is just consuming you. And it hurts, because you feel like you'll burst if you don't hug him or kiss him, and express that love. Because there is so much of it, it is exploding in you. And it gets hard to breathe, because you're so full of love from inside. And you can just breathe when you're with him, because then it just keeps flowing from you. But it stops your breath when he looks at you, or smiles, because that moment is so intense, and so special, you want to just stop breathing and live it forever. And then when you look at him, or think of him, you have to smile. You smile so hard, such a big smile, that you feel like your cheeks will tear. But it's not enough. Because, to encompass all that love, you need to smile more. Bigger. And brighter. It's like a nuclear reactor inside you. Maybe that's why they say love is radioactive, love is toxic. Because it just consumes you from the inside, and you keep exploding, little by little.
