I could pluck the stars from the night sky
and you would never know that they were missing.
Because you never looked up to see the beauty in this world,
and you never noticed me standing among it.

It's hard to think that we both keep moving forward,
and slowly we stop looking back.
But I'm always checking that rearview mirror,
hoping to still see you passing by along in it.

I felt something.
And because I did,
that makes it real.

My hands may have let go,
but my heart didn't.

I knew I grew up
when I suddenly realized
how cold the ocean is.

I can be impatient and insecure.
I can be overwhelming and selfish.
I can ask for too much and not see all that you have to offer me.
I can be blind,
but I promise you eventually
my heart will see.
Yet sometimes it may be too late.
I am flawed and I am definitely imperfect,
But
I can love you like you have never been loved.
I love deeply and I love widely.
I love passionately and I love endlessly.
I love too much,
but I don't love too often.
And this is the greatest gift
anyone could ever receive.

I overwhelm with love.
Expressing it freely
because I don't know
how much time I have
left on this earth to say,
"I love you."

So I say it often
and I say it loudly.
I say it boldly
and I say it proudly.
I love too much
because I don't know any other way of loving someone.

You see my greatest strength
is also my biggest weakness.
But most of all
it's my greatest downfall.

And I keep falling.
