A boy admiring a pretty girl. A rare thing to be certain. But love-true love-is something else.

Anyone else feel like that? Like your life's a big act. Like you're trying to be a man when you're just a scared kid, trying to keep under control when you really want to scream, cry, or maybe hit someone. Ever feel like you're breathing underwater and you have to stop because you're gulping in too much fluid.

Everyone can use a little beauty.
