I tried to make a list
Of all the ways you make me smile
It started with the laugh you have
When it sounds like the funny thing
Caught you by surprise
Then, the way you raise your eyebrows
When you catch me staring at you
I tried to make a list
Of all the ways you drive me crazy
First, your incessant insistence
To tease me about EVERYTHING
And the fact that I can’t even pretend to be mad
And also the way you do your hair in the morning
It’s really annoying how perfect it is
I tried to make a list
Of all the reasons why I miss you
Like, I sleep better when you’re holding me
And I can feel your heart beating in your chest
And every time we are together
I am filled with alllll the joy
And it’s always awkward when I blurt out our inside jokes
To anyone but you
I tried to make a list
Of all the reasons why I love you
But it’s so hard to keep track
When the list grows every day
And somehow I manage to keep falling
More in love with you all the time
And I’m pretty sure
I could spend
An eternity
In your arms
And the list goes on and on
