thump
thump
thump
My head on your chest
Your hand on my breast
A soft hum and stir
Vibrating in my ears
Rising from an internal cavity
A gentle up and down
Motion of your stomach
Reminds me you're asleep
Which reminds me,
I wanted to tell you something:
I love the way you can always
ALWAYS
Find something worth laughing about
I love the way your voice itself
Is poetry
I love the way you get stressed out
But still make time to
Listen to my woes
I love the way you tell me
Everything will be okay
Everything will be right
I love the way you remind me
We'll see each other soon
I love the way you refuse to see
Any of my negative qualities
And even if you do you see the
Silver lining
I love the way you swing your racket
And how your cheeks puff up
When concentrated
I love the way your blue eyes
Are so full of hope
And wonder
I love the way you say my name
When you tell me goodnight
Goodmorning
And that you love me
I love the little spirals you
Get yourself into
Because I know you trust me
Speaking of which
I love the way you trust me
Like a child trusts their parents
I love the way you talk about getting married
I even love the way your pants
Get just a *little too tight sometimes
But to sum up everything
Into one small, impactful sentence:
I love you
That's what I think
As I hear your heartbeat
Can I know how you feel, too?
