I love you.
Those are my words,
I don’t know what else to say,
But at the same time there’s so much I want to tell you,
I just don’t know how to phrase it.
But you help so much,
You let me just speak,
I don’t feel like I have to wear a mask around you.
You’re everything to me,
And I want to express that more,
You’re my light, my flower, my water and my sky.
“I love you” is still too small,
I need something better,
Something that gives you butterflies the way you always give me,
I may not know how to do this but I’m so glad you’re here with me.
Before I used to be sad,
Feel isolated and never chosen.
I thought I was broken.
But with you,
I’m the happiest I’ve been,
The shattered glass walls that used to be my head have healed and become flowing in sparkling waves of love and warmth.
I used to be a dull ocean with desperation spreading endlessly in every direction.
It was overwhelming, I thought I was unlovable.
But you were a drop of neon in that dull ocean,
You shine so bright that you burned away all of the desolation that took root.
Life flows through me, brighter than I’ve seen before.
There are so many shades of colors that I’m seeing now that are just so bright.
I know my flaws still,
They’re there,
But with you,
They feel smaller.
You always know what to say,
Your way with words is something like a crystal droplet reflecting light all over my room.
The broken noise used to be loud.
Now it’s a whisper,
And your voice is the one I hear.

I have a three part love series now. yay me.
