Him

November 1, 2017

He

Taught me 

To value myself 

He

Made me 

See myself for who I am

You are beautiful

He 

Smells like laughter 

And unconditional love

We

Tell eachother 

Secrets

That have never left our tongues prior

What do you feel when you look at him?

What do you know of him that makes him desirable to you?

I am overcome with

Grace and smiles

He is so close

Yet so far away

Accepting me to be my own self

And trusting upon my own decisions

TRUST

For there would be no him lest trust 

He is my first trust

COMMUNICATION

For there would be no him lest communication

He knows me like the freckle on the middle of his back 

CONNECTION

He has already known what I'll say before I'll say it 

He

Has the same thought process

WE

Are strong together.
