A/N: Hey guys! I know I have been the worst about updating on time this month (but at least I haven't missed a week!) I promise it'll be better next month, anyway, hope you like it!


Like a bee drawn to a flower so it can create something sweet, and a flower calling to the bee so it can flourish and grow, that's how they are.

In an abstract sort of way.

Like the moon lighting up the darkest night and the wolf that howls in yearning of want and praise at the light in the sky that isn't the sun, that's how they are.

In an abstract sort of way.

Like how cereal needs milk to take away the dryness of life and add a splash of something that only milk could ever provide, that's how they are.

In an abstract sort of way

Like a big fluffy dog who's playful and outgoing and a small sleek cat who's sweet and shy. Like the hot chocolate warming you up and the marshmallows that make it sweet. Like short and tall and big and little and all the words that aren't the same but just roll off your tongue like they belong together.

That's how they are

Like a hand in a hand clasped together in a way that just fits, like smiles that don't go away long after the person has gone, like a reach in the dark for comfort and a hug in the morning to reassure.

That's how they are.

Like small kisses on cheeks during a surprise lunch at work, like biting lips in the car because they haven't made it home yet, like angry voices at dirty dishes and soft tones that apologize after.

That's how they are.

Like awkward and clumsy and imperfect but trying so so hard to try and get it right that they actually manage to do it.

That's how they are.

Like the horizon where the endless stretch of sky changing hues of light and dark and the deepest ocean with crashing waves and imperturbable calm finally, after so much time, meet.

That's how they are.

In an abstract sort of way.


A/N: So what did you think? I just had the prompt Abstract and the bee and flower thing was the first to come to mind so I just went from there. I guess if we're looking at the semantics of love, one perspective could just be this. Though, I have been writing more broad stuff lately. Let's see if I can do something more specific for the next update… (would you guys like that?)

Please Review! I'd love to hear your thoughts!

And as always, thanks for reading!

See ya! :)
