then he looked at me
and he told me
he loved mehe said
that he looks
at the stars every night
and that they don't
amount
anywhere near mehe said
that he wants to go
forever
to infinity and beyondhe said
that i had sparkly eyes
and a warm smilethat i powered through
and that i lead the grounds
letting nothing
get in my wayhe said
that he loved me
even when i cried
a little too hard
that nighteven when
i get a little
insecure
sometimeshe said
that he loved me
and that
all of time
wasn't enough
for ushe said
our love was more
than the constrictive
forevershe told me
that even the word
love
couldn't explain
how he feels for meso
i told him
actions speak
louder than words
then he held my handkissed me gently
and reminded me of thisfor the next few infinities.
