I have a crush on your mind, I fell for your personality and your looks are just a big bonus.

And that after 6 months, the pain isn't so bad, but it still hurts more than you think it will. And even after years, you still find yourself thinking about the person you lost and get sad about it. And you still miss them all the time.
