9. Cloud 9

Nobody would explain how I overwhelmed I am
Not by fear, anger, but overwhelmed by happiness and passion
Everytime I see you, the world gets brighter and more beautiful
Your smile can shine through the darkness, embracing me in cloud 9.

We had some struggles and fights, but without them we wouldn't last long
It's not about me, it's not about you, but it's about us all along
The calm after the storm is so beautiful, vivid colors streams through the once dreadful skies
It reminds me of you all through out, my cure, my aid, my medicine, my cloud 9.

In my darkest phases, you see the light within me
In my ugliest faces, you see the beauty in me
In my deepest lies, you see the honesty inside of me
And even in my depressed times, you make me smile like it's cloud 9.

Let me tell you, nobody in this world can resist your ecstatic grin and charm
Especially with that hobby of yours which is always making me laugh and smile
Your corny jokes and cheesy stunts never fail to make me blush despite I'm in a bad time
You will never be my bad influence but my inspiration to work hard like cloud 9.

Our love revolves around us and not around the people who hates us
We don't need to get to a fancy restaurant, and let them kick us out
We're happy anyway despite being hated by our relationship status
I'm alright with street food and homemade dishes that every bite feels like I'm on cloud 9.

I don't care about your preferred sexual orientation as long as you love me
And I know you love me the same way, because you wouldn't get into too much trouble for me
Besides you don't love the gender, but love the person without knowing their sexuality
And holding my hands in public and not being ashamed is my preferred cloud 9.

Some people would hate us, some would support, but being with you is just enough
Adam + Eve or Adam + Steve, no matter which equation you use, the results is still love
Thousands of swords but our barrier of love is too strong for them to penetrate
I may not be good at Mathematics but all I know is you + me is equals to cloud 9.

Cooking me breakfast and lunch and I'll cook your favorite spicy chicken curry
I'll hang our photos together in the kitchen, and hide the childhood memories in the album in the attic
The memories when we are so afraid to come out from the closet
But now that we have shown our true colors, I'm happy that we're free and feeling cloud 9.

For all the nine summers, springs, autumns, and winters we spent together
I can proudly say that we are standing together for almost a decade and I still want more
And now we have adopted our child, I would not make him feel what we have felt before
And for all I care these nine verses and this ninth poem is all for you my cloud 9.
