"You shouldn't see me like this."
I frowned, wondering why.
Are you afraid I'll leave you?
If you are, you should know
That I love you.

When I think of you being happy,
I think of freckles
and butterflies.
And the way you smiled.
The way you made me feel.
Like a thunderstorm was inside me.
The warmth covering my skin,
and the air was a little heavier.
And I love you.

When I think of you being sad,
I think of the times I've ran to you
When I was hurt and crying.
And how you patiently help me
Until my tears are gone.
And I love you.

When I think of you being angry,
I think of you listening when I'm angry.
How you wait for me to calm down
And then we joke about my temper.
And I love you.

I love you.
I love every part of you.
Love doesn't stop.
Not in anger or sadness.
I love every single part of you.
And I'd love to see your every emotion.
