YOU


I wish I can explain you. I wish I could explain your eyes, and the sound of your voice gives me butterflies. How your smile makes my heart skip a beat and how every time I am with you I feel so complete. I just want to lay on your chest and listen to your heartbeat. You are the most beautiful thing I keep inside my heart. When people ask me what I see in you I look away because I don’t want them to fall in love with  you also. But you are the reason why I am smiling again and thanks to you i'm a better person. I could be having the worst day in the world, but the moment I see you, all of that changes. Because of you I laugh a bit harder, cry a little less, and smile a lot more. Sometimes I wonder if love is worth fighting for, but then I think of your face and I am ready for war. Some people search their whole lives to find what I found in you.But I realized something, I was thinking of you, and I began to wonder how long you’d been on my mind. Then it occured to me: since I met you, you’d never left. I will look at the moon and began to think of you. But are you thinking of me? I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you  in this way because I do not know any other way of loving you but this, in which there is no I or you. So intimate that your hand upon my chest is in my hand, so intimate when I fall asleep your eyes close. And you will never know how beautiful you are to me. All I ever want to do is comfort you, and hold you during tough times. I want to wipe your tears because I want nothing but the best for you. Everyone says love hurts, but that's not true. Loneliness hurts, rejection hurts, losing someone hurts. Everyone confuses these things with love but reality, love is the only thing in this world that covers up all the pain and makes us feel worthy again. In the end of the day I will choose you, And I’ll choose you, over and over without a pause, without any hesitation. In a heartbeat I will always choose you. Because You are you.
