I used to dream about all things that we could be
I used to dream about you and I by the sea
I know it’s been awhile but you’re still nice to see
I hope this makes you smile even though you hide it from me

I never thought I'd matter
To anyone

Until you
Came along

And changed my perspective
Of the universe

You made me feel
Like I matter

And I'm grateful
For you.

We all have nights we'll take to the grave,
And I love you so much I wish that wasn't the case.

I love you so much as to want to become you,
To coexist in one another's traumas, drawing one from two

But the reality of the situation outweighs my selfishness;
The right to obsession should only be granted with the wish
To respect the person you love so much. Tonight will be questionless,
Tomorrow can be too. As long I'm with you now I'll be in love again with every new kiss.

Skip our pasts, skip the faults that halted us before we made one another better,
And settle on this beautuful happy silence built on years of trial and error.

I love you,
And I no longer have to say it,
I don't need to know every detail that made you,
As long as it is you I am with.
