Little Things

My hair was a mess,
It was the middle of the night.
You still told me I was beautiful,
And that made it alright.

I was shivering from the cold,
You put your arm around me.
You let me snuggle in,
Your favourite hoodie.

I was about to fall asleep,
My energy was gone.
When you gently reminded me,
That I still had my contacts on.

You held my hair back,
As I struggled with the lens,
That's when it all,
Began to make sense.

I liked you when you held me,
When you said things to make me smile.
I liked you when you pampered me,
When you ran that extra mile.

But it was when you looked at me,
With that wonder on your face,
When you did those little things,
That made my heart race

When you played my favourite song,
Or kissed my forehead,
When you took my hand in yours,
Or gave me your shoulder instead

When you did those little things,
That you didn't have to do
It was then that I knew,
I'd fallen in love with you.

You're my favourite place to go to when my mind is searching for peace.
