the kid's in love


you are immeasurable.

you are too pure for words, but like always i’ll give this (you) all of me.

these phrases do you no justice, but i thank God because now i can't stutter when i tell you

 

it is because i love you that,

i fear nothing, for you give me invincibility.

 

i have learned that doubting God is not an option,

for you were crafted by something greater than any being.

 

you set me ablaze, i feel you before we even touch.

 

my sanity, my sun, my stars, my saint, you are my soulmate.

 

you, my dear, are the eternal love of my sixteen-year life.


and it is because i love you that i not only see the best in you but

a damned good version of me.

 

i am an asset, i have relevance, i am unapologetically loved by you.

with us, there is no such thing as out of bounds.

 

the only thing unrequited is the cool warmth that runs in me when i see you.

there’s no way you feel it too

 

because,

 

you are immeasurable.

 

too pure for periods and parentheses.

too golden to try and glamorize.

too captivating to calculate.

 

you are my fate.

you are worth every adversity,

because i love you.
