Valentine 3

it's not just because you're pretty.

Beautiful.

Gorgeous.

Stunning.

it's not just because you're pretty

that makes my heart ache for you.

 

it's not just because you're talented.

Excellent.

Amazing.

Inspiring.

it's not just because you're talented

that makes my heart long for you.

 

it's not just because you love me.

Want me.

Need me.

Desire me.

it's not just because you love me

that I love you with all I have.

 

it's not just because of all those things.

but all those things together

Wrapping

Twisting

Weaving

into each other

assembling constellations no star-gazer can imagine

creating paintings that would make the greatest blush

assembling music to cast all musicians to shame

it's All of it.

Everything.

creations I never imagined created

that make me

that bind me

that tear me apart

For you

To you

You and only you.
