15 Reasons why I love you
“I’ll be yours to keep; wind in the shadows, whale song in the deep” B Howard
The way you smile as if your heart was smiling for you
The way your head rests on my shoulders as if you and I were lego pieces built for one another
The way you spread your love like sunflower seeds in the summer wind
The way your eyes betray your thoughts as if you were constantly fighting a losing battle when it comes to hiding your feelings
The way you look at sunsets, as if it were the last one, every day
The way you comfort my wild thoughts like you tame a wild horse, with infinite patience
The way you look at me in the morning, as if the perfect sunrise was only the second best thing you could witness
The way you say good morning, as if you already knew how each day spent with you was the best thing one could wish for
The way you dance, as if you were stepping on burning embers, completely out of tempo with the song, but completely in tune with me
The way you conquer your rebellious hair with such grace that I must’ve been caught staring more than once
The way you light up the room you walk into as if our worlds had been filled with moonless nights all along
They way you drive, making sure you sing all the words to your favourite songs as perfectly-pitched as you can, all the while body-rolling down the avenue
The way you laugh, for you make me realise that tears of laughter are not as salty as tears of sorrow, making it so much easier to bear
The way you see women, as if you were all graceful galaxies within a roaring Sun, with the wild and limitless ability to empower and to create
The way you get undressed, as if the sound of your sliding clothes on the floor always made my heart skip a beat, just as the sound of my gliding fingers on your bare skin always seem to create the sweetest memories
