10 Reasons to Love Me


 

  1. I may not be perfect

But I can always care for you like how a little girl loves her teddy bear.

I may not be perfect

But I can be the most

Compassionate

Romantic

Empathetic girl you’ll ever meet

 

     2.   I always wish for soulmates to be real.

           Like introducing each other

           Having a conversation with them about Harry Potter or the meaning of life

           As if a toddler-sized cupid will shoot it’s bloody sharp arrow right at you

           And you’re falling in love

 

     3.   I do my best to understand you.

           Asking “How has your day been?”

           “Have you ate breakfast?”

           The problems you have been trying to zip up

           You are doorknob and I’m Alice

           I sacrificed myself to get through you, just to understand you

 

     4.   I can create a life-long story of you and me.

           You make the story worth telling

           To voices that can’t be heard from the back of the classroom

 

     5.   I want people around me to feel like they’re adored.

          That I will always be there for them

          Even if they’re from Venus and I’m from Mars.

 

     6.  I hold onto things forever

          Like the names of the people whom I loved

          Ever since I met them.

          Our love is inevitable.

        

    7.  There are two kinds of people:

         We have the realist

         And the hopeless romantics

         I’m glad to say that I’m a hopeless romantic.

         I am in love with love

         I fantasize about it, hoping it will come to life

         Like dancing in the rain

        Walking down the beach/looking at the aquamarine sea    

        I want you to love me for that

 

    8.  If I were an animal, I’d be a tiger.

         Protecting you from fear crawling up to your spine

         I can be sneaky

         So be honest with me/don’t say that you’re “fine”

         Because you’re not.

 

   9.   I can love you for you

         And all of you

         You are perfectly imperfect no matter what circumstance

         I will love you unconditionally

 

   10. I am truly

         Madly

         And always will be

         Yours.
