Through Thick and Thin

Because I love you

I will tell you time and time again

How beautiful I think your dark brown eyes are

In the midnight glow of the full moon

I will hold you in my arms and smile into your hairline

As we watch a cheesy show on netflix

In our pajamas

At one in the morning

I will whisper

Because I love you

I will stick by your side

Through thick and thin

Through clear streams and muddy lakes

Because your love is my savior

The moments your flaws come out to play are the moments I wait for

The way you bite your nails when you’re nervous

And look anxiously around the room

When you meet someone for the first time

I love you because all of these things are endearing

They have all been beautifully concocted into one being

You

I will water the flowers in your garden when you are sick

I will kiss your forehead when I leave for work in the morning

I will do anything and everything in my power

To see that light-up-the-desert-at-midnight smile of yours

Because I love you
