it took me 313 days
to realise it was you
it took me 313 days
to process that my soul
wanted nothing more
than to be loved by you
the rest of our lives

it took me 313 days
in the purest
most raw
form
to realize
you were the sound
of birds chirping
in the morning light

it took me 313 days
to realize that i would choose you
time and time and time again
jolting me like the clock once it strikes twelve
awakening my soul
from the deepest slumber

i hope you know
that i love you
since the moment i stepped foot
into that pub
since the moment our eyes met
since the moment our souls intertwined

i love you
