I want you.
I want you in me.
I want your mouth.
I want the salt of your skin to linger on my tongue long after we part.
I want you.
I want your bad jokes.
I want your lingering gaze.
I want your smile when I say "Hi." when I mean to say "I am falling hard. And, it scares me."
I want you.
I want your fears laid out for me so that I may help conquer them.
I want your emoji game to get better and better. (Gimme all those gifs, Baby)
I want your indecision spoken aloud so I can help you choose us again and again.
I want you.
The guilt you carry for things long done.
The things that keep you awake at night.
You can trust them with me when you're ready to tell.
I want you, but I don't need you.
I can live without you.
I am plenty strong.
I have survived worse than losing you.
I am choosing you.
Want is stronger than need.
Need is desperation.
Need is suffocating.
I don't have to love you.
But, I want to.
I hope to.
I will.
