"There are all kinds of courage. It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends." - Albus Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

Only in love
could I cry three times a day
and still go to bed smiling

Only in love
could you curse me out repeatedly
and still my heart is shining

Only in love
could saying “I love you”
make me fear that you don’t

And only in love
could miracles happen,
even when I swear they won’t.
