I don't know what it was at first-
that caught my attention.
It wasn't that you laughed at
my jokes and made me smile,
it wasn't the clear blue skies
you had for eyes, it wasn't
anything physical...
I think after a while,
I started to know;
what it was that
kept me magnetised to you,
always coming back
and even after every fight
I'd still come running back
apologising because
I would rather lose a fight
than ever lose you.
I knew what it was
that kept me falling back
towards your direction,
it was in the fact
that we shared the same
eyes, the same smile,
the kind that hid things,
and the fact that you
could find it in yourself
to care about me.
I knew it that you had
a loving soul because
as you were created
you're ever going to be
extraordinary to me.
Just the right amount
of extraordinary that
made you beautiful.
Just like the way
sometimes some stars
would align, enough
to form a constellation.
You are a constellation,
so distant...
yet so elegant.

So please give me a sign,
let me know if
I'm koalafied to be your numpty.
I'm sorry for everything that I am, I'm sorry I couldn't be better.
But I know what I can try to do better than anyone,
and that is to love you with all my heart.
