It was.

It wasn’t a fairytale.
It wasn’t how they say it should be
and it didn’t go how they said it would either.
It wasn’t supposed to last long.
Just another one along the way.
But it wasn’t.

It was all the emotional pain.
It was the uncontrollable feelings.
It was friendship
and fear.
It was passion
and endless nights.
It was beautiful.

And in the end
it hurt.
And the pain still stings a bit.
But it was real.
