As I read your words, I wish I could reach through this screen to hold your shaking hand. Because no matter how poetically I write something, or how lovingly I stare at your eyes, I don't think you could comprehend how completely obsessed I am with you. You have to say it a million times because you think the quiet, means I'm slipping away. But listen to the space between my breaths: I am here. You cannot lose me even if you tried. And believe me when I say You give me butterflies by just reaching for my hand. This love isn't a tightrope we aren't going to fall off. We are standing on solid ground created by the way we laugh at nothing at all or the way our eyes meet in a room with hundreds of others. or the way we communicate how much we care through poetry. How long will it take for you to notice? I am crazy for you. You are crazy for me. We aren't unbalanced. We are equal.
