I love you!
Dina Nov 2013
I love you like I love to read, makes me feel alive.
I love you like I love the rain, its lustful calm embrace.  
I love you like I love the thrill
of pure infatuation.
But most of all I love you like
I love a cherished person.
Who holds me tight, dries my tears
and loves me to the end.
I love the way you look at me,
Your eyes so bright and brown.
I love the way you kiss me,
Your lips so soft, smooth and sugary.
I love the way you make me so happy,
And the ways you show me care.
I love the way you say, “I Love You,”
And the way you’re always there.
I love the way you touch me,
Always sending chills down my spine.
I love the adrenaline rush you give me.
I love that you are with me,
And glad that you are mine.

Did you ever fall in love? Head over heels?
How do you trust your feelings when they can just disappear?

You may think you're in love when he gives you those butterflies in the pit of your stomach. You'll think you're in love when he gets jealous when you speak or laugh with other guys. You'll assume he'll fight for you when things get tough. When he buy you flowers you'll feel like the world had stopped revolving when in fact, it didnt, they're just illusions.

You're not in love. You just think you are. If I ask you what does love mean, your answer will be "he gives me butterflies" "he thinks i'm the most perfect person he's ever met" "that heart-pounding adrenaline rush when I see him". You'll say "he cares for me like no one ever did". Is that it? That's when you say "i'm in love"?

Is he loyal? Does he respect you? Does he treat you well? He knows how to make you happy? Like real happy. Does he support you? In whatever thing you're willing to do. Is he a keeper? Do you know his past? Are you a part of his life? Like a part of his future? Does he see behind your vulnerability? Does he see your flaws and still love you? Does he want to serve you selflessly? Does he still spends time with other people? Does he take time to build the relationship? Does he work on this relationship as much as you do? His other relationships and friendships grow stronger? Does he trust and understand you enough to result in less severe and less frequent jealousy? Does he fight less seriously and less often? Does he quarrel and make up in the end? Does the quarrels strengthen your relationship?

There's a difference between "I love him" and "I am in love with him". A difference between "infatuation" and "love". You'll think you're in love when in fact you're just infatuated.

Infatuation? It's when you see him as perfect. When he wants to get his own needs met; selfish. When he spends all time with you. When you quickly “fall” for each other . When his other relationships and friendships deteriorate. When dependence on him causes jealousy, frequently. When quarrels are serious and common between both of you. When a quarrel can seriously cause harm to the relationship. This is when you're infatuated. You're tricked; you think you're in love when you're just hallucinating.

In fact, love is not a feeling. It's a choice. It's a commitment.

We are meant to be!
Dina Nov 2013
After all this time, we're back, we're back and happy. After all this time, you're still mine and i'm still yours. I just believe so much that it's meant to be. We're meant to be. We're so good that i'm afraid i'd envy us. I tasted how losing you takes the life out of me. I'll do everything to keep you. I'll do whatever it takes to be with you. I'll do whatever it takes to never hurt you. I'll never hurt you, when you're hurt im hurt. I feel so close to you that we're almost the same person. I know you like i know the back of my hands, like myself. You're literally my soulmate and i'm not exaggerating. I'll never love someone else and i'll never think about anyone else. You're my life. I swear you are. You're my everything. I'm so ecstatic that each time you tell me i love you, i get those butterflies in the pit of my stomach. I love you so much. I love you. I adore you. I miss you.

I have never seen you
Dina Jan 2014
I have never seen you. I only heard about you. Today was your birthday, same death day. I bet it was such a trauma to everyone who loved you. I love you, I do, their stories left a huge missing part in my heart, i have for you. You would've been the most admirable grandfather in the world. I saw you in my dreams, you were smiling, looking at me and wishing you were here with me. But, you're in a better place now. You were a great man, I'm proud to be your granddaughter. I have never seen you, but the words I hear about you are beyond words. I have never seen you, but I wish I did. I have never seen you but I really miss you. I have never seen you but you mean a lot to me. I have never seen you but I want to make you proud, looking at me from above and saying, that's my girl. I have never seen you but you'll always be someone I love. I have never seen you but I know how you would've made me feel special. I have never seen you but I pray for you everyday. We all make mistakes, I pray God to remove them from your book. I have never seen you but you'll always have that special place in my heart. I have never seen you but I love you, grandfather.
