When you get to know someone,
all their physical characteristics
start to disappear.
You begin to dwell in their energy,
recognize the scent of their skin.
You see only the essence of the person,
not the shell.
That’s why you can’t
fall in love
with beauty or looks.
You can lust after it,
be infatuated by it,
want to own it.
You can love it
with your eyes and your body,
but not your heart.
That’s why when you really connect
with a person,
any physical imperfections disappear,
become irrelevant.
