°Dumbfounded, adj.

And still, for all the jealousy, all the doubt, sometimes I will be struck with a kind of awe that we're together. That someone like me could find someone like you -- it renders me wordless.°

- The Lover's Dictionary, David Levithan

"Sometimes I wake up, and it's 3 AM, and I have never felt more in love with you than in that moment."

This is for the boy I love.

Because I fell in love with you, and I haven't been the same since.

I fell in love with you, and now I don't remember life before love.

And I am terrified, because I don't remember. (I don't want to remember)

There is only you and your eyes and your smile and skin on skin and it's not static, all I feel is electricity pulsing through my veins.

One word. You.

Because I fell in love with you, even if they told me to run. Run and never look back.

And I turned my back to the world and everything the world wanted, because you were what I needed. (You are what I need)

I am in love with you, and all the flaws that they all warned me about.

Your flaws and every part of who you are.

I love you, because you are you. (Clichè)

I love you, and I am overwhelmed by how I cannot imagine life without you.

I will love you through gray skies and I will love you in the rain and in scorching heat.

And I will love you through unimaginatively-unpoetic misfortunes, and I will love all your uncertainty.

I will love you until I cannot love anymore.

And I will love you until loving is the only thing I can do.
