an ode to you

you came in my life

and i had no idea that you'd become the most important person to me

you rise me up when i am down

and stay patient with me when i overthink

never have you belittled me

or made me feel invalidated

after i met you is when i realized

love only belongs to those who deserve it

and damn darling do you deserve it

i couldn't tell you how much i'd give

to kiss you everytime you laugh

or run my hand through your hair when you're deep in thought

but i stay silent in the library

when these cravings hit me the hardest

because i don't want to share this love with anyone but you

baby you give me hope

in my once hopless world

so here i give

this ode to you
