To catch one's eye
To hold one's hand
To grab someone's attention.All of that's easy
Compared to the difficulty
Of capturing someone's heart.So what made you so special
To suddenly come in
And shake my heart like this?You make me so nervous
You're such a bad girl
Now I can't push you out of my mindYou drive me insane
But you also helped me
To drive towards successEven if you sometimes
Had to get out of the car
And push me along with itI want to make you feel
How I see you to me
How special you are to me.I want to see you laugh
And see you glow
And be a boost in your confidence.I want to take care of you
And make you feel safe
And see you smile as I smile with you.I love your words
And hearing your jokes
I've grown to love so much of you.I'd give a list
But it's so long
I can't even begin to count.You make me feel ecstatic
You make me feel warm
You make my heart go as it didn't before.You make me feel comfortable
Childish and vulnerable
Yet you make me feel like I'm as strong as hulk.I feel free and alive
Like I could fly
One of the best feelings to experience.You support me
You encourage me
You're interested in my goals.You support my dreams
And cheer for me
And help me up when you can.No matter how high
No matter how low
I know you've got me close.You possess quite beauty
Many can see
How stunning you appear.But not everyone knows
The clever girl
Has more beauty than eyes can see.You truly are beautiful
But I didn't fall for just your looks
I fell for the entirety of you.When I see you
I see no one else
I want to spend much of my time with you.I hope that we
Get to spend
The rest of our lives together.***
Falling in love might be different for everyone but they all have those few similarities; something in common.
(Don't ask me what it is. I don't think I'll be able to give a satisfactory answer. I'm too inexperienced.)Love isn't usually instantaneous (though there have probably been in few cases when you get rid of the moments of infatuation). It's something that develops over time.
You might end up falling for someone close to you without realising it. It's just slow and mellow. Then, you start thinking or realising things that you didn't notice before or never really surfaced through the sea of other thoughts and emotion inside you. And then BAM!
It happens (or not.)
Whether it's that you fall in love or grow to love someone just and little bit more, it's still there though it's two different kinds.
Have you ever experienced that kind of love?
Until next time,
