My mind boggled and my fingers trembled, my heart stopped and lips went numb when I said "I love you"
It baffles me how a trillion feelings are all compacted into 3 simple words
How all I can do is smile when he laughs so hard, a vein pops out of his temple
How he turns all my devils and flames into angels and clouds
When he touches me, I get cold and a million butterflies fly all over me
and all he makes me think is "What if this is meant to be?"
How do a trillion feelings fit into an 8 letter phrase, but more so a 4 letter word?
because this tiny but mighty force is strong like a sword, harmful but graceful, depending on the hand that wields it.
I guess this is how
L is for a 90-degree angle, which means it must be right when you say it
O is because if it's meant to be, it will always find a way, no matter how many twists and turns
V is because, depending on which way you flip it, it can be greater than (>) or less than (<) any other force in the world
and E, because love is endless. When it's real, at least.
So, suddenly, all my risk had fallen into a great abyss and all that was left was the joy that left me without words when he held me in his arms, smiled at me, and whispered

"I love you too."
