I should be there with you,
Living in a new city and meeting new people.
I should be getting drunk with you at parties
And staying up all night studying.
I should be exploring the city with you,
But instead I am stuck where we first met.
I should be there to hold you when you need it.

I've written so many poems
About heartache and regret and worry
About people who will never care enough to read them
For people I could never trust enough
To share with anyway
I showed you my poems today
The sad ones and the happy ones
You wrote your first poem today

I feel like there is someone grabbing my heart
It only stops when I'm around you
When I look into those Aqua eyes
I see joy
Happiness
I see trust
The worry of not knowing is gone because you know there is no need
Because I will never leave

I stopped writing sad poems
When your lips first met mine

You tell me to follow my dreams,
but you haven't realized it yet.
Being with you is my dream.

Some days I'm fine,
Some days I miss you so much;
I wish someone would tear my heart out.
Some days I am just happy to call you mine.
And some days I wonder why.
Why does it have to be this way?
Why do you live so far away?
I just want you here with me,
I want to be able to kiss you after my games,
I want to wait for you outside of class,
I want to study for tests together,
I want to dance the night away with you at homecoming,
But most of all I just want to hold you.
I just want to lay down with you,
On a rainy day after a long week of school,
And fall asleep with you in my arms.
It's my most favorite thing in the world.
I miss that the most.
I love you,
But this is the hardest thing I have ever done

The day that I have been dreading is near
The separation of a couple,
a partnership,
a dynamic duo,
a love and trust filled bond.
I know we will be reunited,
and when we are,
you will see the biggest smile on my face.
The smile that you fell in love with,
and all will be right in the world,
well all will be right with us.
Which is all I have ever wanted.

I'll tell you why my heart swelled the first time
My first
Your first
Our first
Even though we didn't know what we were doing
Between the grunting
And gasping
And gripping
My heart swelled because
You would smile at me
And we would both laugh
And afterwards I held your hand
And you didn't say it then
But I knew you loved me back

The way you make me feel is indescribable
I feel at home whenever I'm with you
You put the brightest smile on my face
And when I look into your eyes
I realize that I hit the jackpot with you
You push me to be the best
And you deserve the best
I have never loved someone before
But I know I love you
