You are The Apple of My Eyes

I guess love is meant to scare us. If it were easy, then it wouldn't be worth working for, honey. It wouldn't be worth our effort to try and then try again. I'd never know how much I love you if I'm not trying over and over again to get to you.

The heartbreak that comes with it is just a part of life. It's what helps heal us and help us to find what we are truly looking for, not just a fairy tale idea we have in our minds. Love is a challenge. We challenge ourselves to allow someone else to be a part of our lives.

And I don't even think we have a choice when love happens. It takes us by surprise. It did, it did happen to me. With no warning, with no knocking at my door. We let our hearts open and take on someone else's.

Yeah, that's the truth. I didn't even notice when this love is growing this strong inside of me. Your burdens become my burdens. My battles become your battles. Your pains become my pain. My joys become your joys.

Did you notice? We become instinctively protective to each other over someone that we love and we try to keep them safe from everything

Did you notice? We become instinctively protective to each other over someone that we love and we try to keep them safe from everything. I did, I burnt his bridge for you. I fought him back because he tried to hurt you and I think I'll always do that for you.

You loved me when I was unstable, I loved you when your head was under the water. You loved me when I was unable to love myself, to trust myself so tell me why the fuck you're not mine, honey? I'll be your hero, I'll save you from any harm.

Maybe that's the beauty of it with every ups, downs, and space in between. Love will always be worth fighting for and I always knew you're worth waiting for. I don't fear papercuts, as is often the case before healing comes.

Because I knew after what I've been through, some pages need to bleed like the color of never-ending summer vibes. The night we met in my dreams, yes, you always be the apple of my eyes.
