A Few Thousand Nights

72

when i say i love you-
it means more than what it seems.

you are the foundation of the earth that gives me the freedom to roam
you are the roof over my head and where i feel comfortable
you are an everlasting vacation and an ongoing adventure
you give me strength and effortlessly take it away when i feel your soft, loving touch.

not a moment goes by where i don't want to breathe with you.
not a moment goes by where i don't want to be with you.
not a moment goes by where i don't want to feel your hand against my cheek as you slowly pull me in close.

i crave your presence more than i crave burritos
and
i crave your love more than i crave success;
for you are my succession and everything that deems me successful.

you taught me more than i could teach myself and
showed me the love that i've scarcely received.
you built me with time and now i glow
when i smile.
you make every bit of life worth it for me.
i don't know how i made it years without you.

i love you.
it means more than what it seems.
