I remember when we first met

Light flickered in your eyes
the way moonlight reflects
through cold crystals

Your voice that made me deaf
to the loudest of angel hymns
surrounding you

Like the sun
I behold you in sight before
withdrawing from a dangerous stare

Being so close
it suffocated me
yet so far to leave me
of beautiful agony for you

A smile that embeds in your
skull for a day you want
to remember it's perfection

And with the torture of goodbye
we croaked out between soft lips
"see you later"
like it was a promise

Love does not wait in bed
Love is getting out and
exploring what one will go
to the ends of the world for the other

Love is not being so close
to the touch
Love is a connection that surpasses
the attraction from
moon to planet

Love is not about pleasure
of sensual movements
Love is about the happiness
of a smile that was sighed
out after a laugh

Love is not the lust
of their warmth
Love is sparking a fire
with just one kiss

Love is not just about
***
Love is the bliss from their presence
when they are in a room of a
thousand and you cannot help but
look and imagine
them looking back
and smiling like they
found something special

I love you

And I don't just say that
like it's something normal
I love you a lot

I love you like the warmth
from a candle
I love you more than a sky
filled with stars
I love you more than a song
that whispers your secrets
I love you more than
time could ever age

I love you more than each step
to a destination,
each breath
to the last

I love you from the endless sea
to the forever earth

I love you
and sometimes the words
"I" and
"love" and
"you" are too short and
simple to mean
infinitely everything

Just being with you
leaves me speechless

I just want to be quiet
and listen to you for hours,
cuddling together side by side to
keep ourselves warm with our
heartbeats and slow breaths

I want to just take in our
soft silence, where there is
no questions asked
no words taken so serious
no explanations to reason
our way out of misgiven words

I just want to feel like the two of us
are the only ones in the world
and that would be okay
because all we need at that moment is
each other
