I was born with an analytical mind.
Born to break down everything in my sight
until I discovered and learned the core
because what my eyes take in may be deceiving.
It was always that way until you came along.
For the heart knew what it wanted,
and it wanted to love you.
Every inch of you -- hair follicle to toenail.
Every part of your soul.
I wanted to turn it inside and out until you
became the greatest book I ever read.
I wanted to feel your skin on mine
because our bodies were meant to be one.
There was never a need to question anything
pertaining to you because you were the perfect fit.
The way you breathe became my favorite rhythm.
Your touch sent incredible sensations through my body.
The taste of you simply left me craving more.
And all that did was make the physical
separation harder to bear.
I knew we weren't moving too fast
because the burning desire and passion
was what you felt, too.
And your silence speaks volumes.
I want nothing more than to bask in such glory.
Your presence alone demands attention in the room.
Even if it is just us two.
You leave me filled with such wonder,
daydreaming about you.
The fact that you exist makes me
so **** proud to have you.
So it's safe to say the mark you've left
won't go anywhere. You are my escape,
my go-to when the world isn't doing so great.
You have broken me out of my shell.
I have embraced who I am even more than before.
All thanks to you.
And I thank you for this journey.
One like this wouldn't be the same without you.
