Animal Kingdom


All I know is that someone once told me that

atlas moths fall in love at first sight and will mate with

their partner for life.

And that I can learn more from the animal kingdom

about love than any relationship I have

ever witnessed.

I hope you never have to waste your time

as much as I did

when I stayed up all night

wondering why I wasn't good enough

for you to give a chance.
