I Philic You

Whenever my phone lights up, your name flashes across the screen and I'll be illuminated by so.
I'd drop everything right away to pick up my phone and jump onto my bed, smile as I unlock it.
I've always been looking forward to the day I find someone who could make me trade everything in the world for the time of his.
And I was led to you.

When you first teased me, I instantly knew that you were different from anyone else.
You loathed it whenever I compare you with them, you'd tell me that you're different and you are.
I first felt butterflies in my stomach when I was 14 and I thought that it was the best thing that could ever happen to a person.
But when I was 17, I never thought that reading a simple text from you would send shivers down my spine.
And I was led to you.

When you first talked to me, I was immediately allured by your intelligence.
I never once had to worry about the words that I use, I never once had to worry whether or not you'd judge me or misread my words.
I love the fact that you never knew how your intelligence has charmed me.
Not to mention that I've never once met someone who'd restrict himself from swearing when he's with me.
And I was led to you.

When we first fought, you never tried to hide your feelings away.
I've always been saying things that are utterly dumb, yet you'd still care to text me back the next day.
Yesterday, we had quite a huge row.
You've always been protecting me like no one else does, no one has ever done it so affectionately.
And I was led to you.

When we first called, it was the first time ever we got to hear each other's voice.
That night, you told me that you loved my voice.
You told me again the next day and the day after that, and again.
No one has ever made me smile to sleep night after night just because of his one tiny compliment.
And I was led to you.
