Romantic

Love u duh… now less hassle.

People make romance sound complicated.

Grand gestures.

Perfect timing.

Moonlight.

Poetry.

An expensive dinner nobody can pronounce.

That’s all fine.

Sometimes it feels like romance has been over-marketed.

Romance isn’t the fireworks.

It’s remembering where someone left their keys.

It’s sharing the last slice.

It’s sending a message that simply says:

“Made it home.”

No mystery.

No riddles.

No dramatic plot twists.

Just consideration.

The funny thing about love is that people spend so much time trying to prove it.

Meanwhile, the smallest actions often do the best job.

A door held open.

A laugh at a joke that wasn’t that funny.

That’s romance too.

Not every love story needs a soundtrack.

Not every moment needs to become a memory for the ages.

Sometimes love sounds less like poetry and more like:

“Did you eat?”

“Text me when you get there.”

“Be careful.”

Not exactly the stuff of legendary novels.

Yet somehow it lasts longer than many of the speeches.

Less worry.

Less stress.

Less hassle.

Love u.

Duh.

That’s the real romantic part.
