The Way I See You

I find it funny how I compare people to what they remind me of. Some are happy, some are sad, but some are in the middle.

But you.

You remind me of something different. It's like that part in a song where you find a really great riff. It carries you and your mind somewhere else. It makes you close your eyes and it fills you with warmth. Like an embracing hug. A beautiful melody. Call me crazy, but it feels like it fills you to the brim and brings you on a euphoric feeling of bliss and just leaves you weightless. Floating on a cloud.

It's moments where the sun shines on you just right, illuminating every feature on your face. Your smile shines a little brighter and glows a little warmer. In that moment, you let yourself come out and enjoyed every minute of it. There were no pressures about work. No pressures about bills and money. No screaming mothers and no siblings that nagged on you. Your troubles seemed to dissipate.

Music was playing, but I wasn't really listening to what was playing. Instead, my head laid on your chest and we held each other. I listened to your heart beat while you told me about your dreams and visions for the world. The sincerity in your voice tugged at my heart and the love showed in my eyes. You smiled real big and leaned down to kiss me.

"I love you. This isn't me deluding myself about us being together. You understand me and make me feel wanted. You make me a better person and you're my better half."

There wasn't anything in that moment that could've changed my mind about you. The world faded and the only thing we could hear was our favorite band playing. There wasn't screaming or worries. We didn't have to worry about our jobs or what bill to pay next.

It was just you and I. It was just us.

Somehow, all the bad things in the world, even the bad we went through, disappeared and everything feels okay again. Time stops and, even then, it doesn't feel like I have enough time to spend with you. It's complicated. But beautiful.

And that makes you you. All the pain. All the work. It's all worth it because it's all for you. No matter what happens, I'll always be there for you. There will be no hate. And there would be no prejudice.

Nothing but love for you.

There will be more! No worries! I wanted to start writing again and maybe others can relate to the things I say.

All the Love.
