i want to look into your eyes
while you cry your heart out,
i want to whisper sweet lies
just so i can see you smile.
i want to hold
your warm hands
within my colder ones,
and tell you how
i would die
just for that moment.
i want to hold your face
tenderly in my palms,
cupping your cheeks
and placing a kiss
upon your forehead.
i want to sit by your side,
listening to all your childhood dreams,
and hearing about
how life is treating you
right now.
i want to walk beside you
when the days seem heavy,
and you choose
to stay silent,
without a single complaint
from my side.
because i want you
in the purest form of love
