you are rain. you are chinese food at 4 pm. you are otter pictures when I'm stressed and a warm hug just because. you are surprise chocolate at 6:30 pm on a wednesday. you are help baking cookies and a kiss on the forehead when you think I'm cute. you are mismatching socks and a messy room covered in laundry and partially read books. you are corny jokes i shouldn't laugh at and endless ****** innuendos. you are an oversized sweater on a cold night and an "I make awesome pancakes" in the morning. you are infinite compliments and a brush of hair out of my face. you are a "get home safe" and a piggyback ride in my apartment. you are my ponytail holder as i throw up everything, too drunk to remember much, except you holding my hand. you are an open door held for me and a noticing of the green in my eyes. you are an adventurer at sunset and a "hold my coffee please" on the way to class. you are the keeper of all my secrets and a rememberer of everything i say. you are the 96 on that difficult essay and the only person who could get me into politics. you are the sad songs at 2 am and the guitar chords i love almost as much as your voice. you are my first kiss in the rain which is now an item checked off my bucket list.
