To know her

I realized that I had fallen in love with all the parts that we shared.
Our love for the arts and creativity.
Our appreciation of love and passion.
Everything I loved in her was everything I saw in a reflection of me.
It was easy loving these qualities about her because they were the same that had in myself.
We can always love in someone else what we love in ourselves.
But it was when I began to love the differences in her that I truly began to love her and to know her.
