I Love You

I need you to love me. 

Without your love and attention, I lose my purpose. 

When you talk to me, I remember who I am. 

I hold onto every syllable that comes out of your mouth. 

You make me feel. 

Without you, I am lost in a world that tells me I am nothing. 

Without you, I am nothing. 

You give me purpose.

 I go to sleep thinking of you. 

I dream of you. 

I spent every second thinking of you. 

You fill every thought in my head with love. 

You fill my stomach with butterflies.

 I want to be near you, feel your presence, feel your warmth.

 But for now, I am content with seeing you from afar, 

living your life without the same quench of love I carry for you.

 You're an artwork on display, and I'm merely passing by.

 It will all pass with time. 

When I see you again, I will remember you as a person I used to care for, and to you, I will have become unrecognizable.
