You

are every

thing

I ever

wanted

but

i

never

thought

I would

ever

have.

Never ever did I think I'd find a man like you.

Never did I think I deserved a man who holds my hand everywhere,
Not afraid to show the world that you are mine
But here you are.

Never did I think I would find a man who compliments me on
everything
Even when I am disgusted by myself
But here you are.

Never did I think id encounter a man who lends me his jumper
even when he is cold
Offers it to me without a second thought
But here you are.

Never did I think I'd acquire a man who sees my messes
and stands by me through them
Even when they are big, ugly and scary
But here you are.

Never did I think I would have a man who cares enough about my pleasure to make sure I experience it every time
And puts himself aside to see that true
But here you are.

Never did I think I would be with a man who noticed the lack of self-care, the lack of eating I partook in
And sits there, waiting, gently pushing me to eat even when that seems impossible
But here you are.

Never did I think a man existed that can tell when I'm in a bad mood before I even told him
Simply from a few texts
But here you are.

Never did I think id ever have a man who thinks I'm perfect
with my messy hair and tear stained cheeks
And does everything in his power to make me see it
But here you are.

Never did I think I would find a man who wants to love me with the lights on
who celebrates my body as a temple, and me as the goddess to which it is dedicated
But here you are.

Never did I think I would ever experience a man who saw my scars
and knew, yet waited patiently until I opened my heart to him
To express his concern about my self-harm, yet fill me with so much love
But here you are.

Never did I think id be called baby and my love and my favourite
Your winter girl.
And it rolls off your lips so easily
But here you are.

Never did I think id find a man who
Sees that I'm hard to love, but whispers 'who said I wanted easy'
and proceeds to love me despite everything
But here you are.

Never did I think I'd have a love
where I don't have to beg you to love me, I don't fight for your approval
But here you are.

You are everything I always wanted and never thought I deserved.

My lovely winter king

Never

Question my love for you.

It is but writing along these lines

It is but written in my heart.

So

If you wake up
Or feel unloved
Or are questioning

why

re-read.

Think of me.

Think of us.

They say have a poet fall in love with you
And you will forever be immortalised.

I hope one day we will both be immortal together.


I love you.
1001 reasons to why i love you.
