I love your face when you’re insecure but want to seem cool
I love how you always want to touch me,
But hesitate to do so
I love your accent
I love your sense of humor
I love that you’re so relaxed

I love
How deep your soul is
How intelligent your mind is
How sensitive your heart is
I love your wild side
I love how good of a listener you are
And that you always say the things I need to hear
I love how you look into my eyes and say I am beautiful
I love that we can talk about everything
I love that we can lay in complete silence
And be utterly fulfilled
I love how you fuck me

I love that you question your existence and purpose
It means you are somebody with passion who wants
More out of this life

I love that you’re stubborn
And won’t let anything get in your way

I love that you are fearful
Fearful of your life
Fearful of your career
Fearful of love
I love it because when you fear,
It means you have a lot to lose, and therefore a lot to give
Fear makes you conduct everything
With care and perfection

I love the effect you have on me
One thought of you,
And my whole body gets warm
My heart beats faster
My mind becomes chaotic

Though I know you like me the way I am
I try to seem cool,
I try to give you space and time
Because when we are together, everything feels
So real
So natural
So good
Therefore, I have to try
To make you want me, really want me
And I have all the time in the universe

A relationship is not a status quo
It’s an ever-evolving process
And each relationship is unique, not by some book of rules

How come
When you said you loved me, I believed you?
But when you said you did not love me,
I couldn’t believe you at all?
Was it wishful thinking?

All I know is that
Nothing is black on white.
Maybe you love me but you
Don’t want me to chase you
Don’t want me to demand something from you
Don’t want me to have hopes
Don’t want me to take your time and energy
Don’t want me to be stuck on you
Maybe you worry that love and relationships
Come with all kinds of rules and promises
You don’t know if you can keep,
And commitments you aren’t ready for

You just aren’t ready for a relationship right now
And I understand that

But we can still love each other

I love you,
And I believe that inside you
There is at least
One little atom
And inside that little atom is a proton
That loves me
