There's something to be said in the way you gently squeeze my hand when I'm upset. Even when I may not know why. Or how you hold my gaze. You try to find my ****** jokes funny, even if you're unable to hide just how bad they are. You're a religion, a dogma, a deity that I completely, utterly worship. No you don't always take the pain away, nor do you magically make it all okay. But you make it all bearable; you've become the reason to try. And like Gatsby and the green light, wishing, hoping for Daisy to notice, I hold out a green light to you. Not only so you can see me, but it is a reminder, a testament, of how I wholly, entirely and unconditionally adore you.
