That all the expertise in the world, any techniques you knew or had learned, went out the window when it was the right person you were kissing.

And I’d choose you; in a hundred lifetimes, in a hundred worlds, in any version of reality, I’d find you and I’d choose you.

Jimmy CarrEvery time he looked at me I felt like I'd touched my tongue to the tip of a battery. In art class I'd watch him lean back and listen and I was nothing but zing and tingle. After a while, the tingle turned to electricity, and when he asked me out my whole body amped to a level where technically I should have been dead. I had nothing in common with a sheddy like him, but a girl doesn't think straight when she's that close to electrocution.
LoveCath Crowley in Graffiti MoonLike gasoline on an open flame, light up so bright... then burn away

He closed the distance between them.
'You’ll get used to it.' He tipped her face up to his, kissed her.
'Why? Why am I the one?'
'Because my life opened up, and it flooded with color when you walked back into it.'
People say you fall in love, but fall is such a sad word when you think about it. Falls are never good. You fall on the ground, you fall behind, you fall to your death. Whoever was the first person to say they fell in love must have already fallen out of it. Otherwise, they'd have called it something much better.

Missing SomeoneTaylor SwiftWell all I really want to do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still cant say it after all we've been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
You felt the weight of the world
Fall off your shoulder
And to your favorite song
We sang along to the start of forever
I once read that you fell in love like how you fell asleep: slowly at first and then all at once.
Emma Scott in The Butterfly Project
