"We never know the worth of water 'til the well is dry."
-- English proverb

it's the little things
that can spark a relationship

holding hands on the first date
eating in a restaurant
neither has been to

the little things
that make it special

a gift
from one to the other
with significance
to both parties
standing out in memory
for years to come

little things that give it
richness and cohesion

discovering mutual likes
and dislikes
boundaries
to keep one another
happy
and fulfilled

yes
it’s the little things
that make a relationship

but be careful
cause it’s the little things
that can break one too
