I had no idea what I was looking for, I just knew that you were it.

You.
You.
You.

Used to love to find them
Not quite sure why
Those sweet little purpley bruises
Reminders of thick fingers on
Hips, sides, thighs

They are the reminders of thick rough fingers
That pulled and prodded me
Out of misery
And into love

Her smile is my favorite geometrical anomaly

Mathematicians have yet to discovered a name for it

Expressing sunshine

Solving the issue of yesterdays broken equations

The corners of her lips are the product of perfection

I need you
Not in the needy way
But more like in the way
Mere mortals need air...

I want you
Not like in the
another slice of pie way
But more like the Oh My-look at that exquisite dessert way

I love you
Not like in the I love you way
But more like in the I have never been so connected to anyone in my life way

I love and need and want you
In a way I never have before

I am falling in love with you
And I am not sure if I should
Apologize or thank you for that
I am falling in love with you
You are teaching me something new
How to have hope
Hoping that the whole thing makes sense
Even though none of the pieces do
Hoping that we get the order right
I am falling in love with you
And this is not any ordinary love
Forget the shallow stuff, this is the deepest kind of love
The stay up late kind of love
The love that has never made life's lemons taste sweeter
I look at this love and marvel how anything could be wonderful
This love it small
But it is growing
Today we are a match
And we will one day grow to be a forest fire
I am igniting my mind with thoughts of you
This love holds every vacant space in my brain
I am falling in love with you
I hope you are falling in love with me too
