A Memoir of My Love
Your head was in my lap,
tendrils of your hair softly curled around my fingers.
You were peaceful and quiet,
and for that I love you.
You threw your arms in the air,
you wiped the sweat off your temple.
You were so into the music,
and because of that I love you.
In my darkest hour, you stayed by my side,
offering me company and understanding.
Because of that, I love you.
Those times we argued late at night,
you never yelled or threw words at me.
For that, I truly love you.
The times we drove around in your car,
the windows rolled down, our hands catching the wind
I realized more and more,
life's better with you in it.
Because you are crazy, passionate,
outgoing, levelheaded, fearless, and sweet.
I love you.
