I'm falling in love...

From moments too dark to explain and sent to break my spirit. To present circumstances that have shown me my love for people, places, and things. What I have overcome is a miracle in itself. I am my own evidence that love does work. And that I deserve to find my own love before I find anyone else’s. I never knew where my journey was meant to take me.
