[california dream;]

there's this old video tape of my parents when they were my age, and i was a tiny baby in christmas clothes.
they were in love. thin. smiling. with their high pitched voices. their long hair. their california dream.
despite the way they looked at eachother. and despite their little home in san jose. they didn't make it.
my paper thin mother and my shockingly handsome father.
their love wasn't enough to keep them together.
to this day when they talk about one another, you know there is such a thing as 'love of your life.'
why isn't love enough.
was steven my love.
did i waste it on cheap fights and cheap lies.
will i ever love bigger and better.
i don't know.
but love. apparently it's just not enough.
