i think of the initial modes of attraction - the crushes i had in kindergarten, and middle school, and high school, how unexplainable connection felt before anyone started slapping status and criteria on every single person (i write this now and feel in my bones how tragic this can can be). how you’d just find yourself on a curb with a group of people who would soon give you memories of a lifetime. how finding yourself somewhere with someone is as simple as life gets. this is what life is , places and people .
