I like you. I like the gold in your eyes, The solidity behind your stare, Soft, but knowing, I like every strand of hair. I like that you speak to me, I like your sentences, phrases and words, I like how you string them together so delicately, Like a melody waiting to be heard. I like our small talk, Even if it’s cheap, I like our conversations in class, And how I think of you as I begin to sleep. I love your voice, How you say my name like a dream, I love all of your truths, And every smile in between. So take all of my likes, Put them in the palm of your hands, Let’s spread them out- Let us make a plan: I can’t promise you much, But I can promise you this, I won’t try to steal away a heart, But I might steal a kiss.

Beginnings
I like you. I like the gold in your eyes, The solidity behind your stare, Soft, but knowing, I like every strand of hair. I like that you speak to me, I like your sentences, phrases and words, I like how you string them together so delicately, Like a melody waiting to be heard. I like our small talk, Even if it’s cheap, I like our conversations in class, And how I think of you as I begin to sleep. I love your voice, How you say my name like a dream, I love all of your truths, And every smile in between. So take all of my likes, Put them in the palm of your hands, Let’s spread them out- Let us make a plan: I can’t promise you much, But I can promise you this, I won’t try to steal away a heart, But I might steal a kiss.
I just want to add that this isn't entirely mine, I changed what I wanted to fit my feelings. Thanks for reading :)
