LOVE

She wondered why her name sounded better somehow when he said it than when anyone else did. She wondered why the hands on every clock in the world moved so slowly when they were apart. She wondered why the stars shined so much brighter than usual whenever he was holding her hand. She wondered why she was humming those romantic songs she used to laugh at on the radio. It was a mystery, and for every question asked, the answer was always the same: LOVE.
