Always Quotes

“Those words don't mean what you want them to,” he explains. “What is love when only said out loud?” I stare at him in the mirror, his eyes never leaving mine. “Isn't love the way I touch your heart in the way no one else can? Is it not the way my lips caress your skin tenderly? Love isn't three words that can be said at any time and in such a simple way. It's the way your heart beats faster when our flesh connects, the way your lips slightly part in preparation of a kiss from me.”
― C.L. Matthews, Always
