1 How could I describe this? It is love, no question. Yet also more than anything I can comprehend. It is a language only revealed to us both. It is a migratory pull….. A super generation of monarch butterflies. It is the colour bronze. It is Mornings; coffee in bed. It is me spilling (of course) You (of course). What is that? It is more than what we know it to be. It is Seeing you after a long day. I am so excited I feel nervous. I look into your eyes and I see myself. It is talking for an hour. Talking about nothing. Talking about everything. Never boredom. Never overwhelming. Good? It is better than that. It is saying goodnight, good morning but never goodbye. A dry back that needs lotion. It is you handling my sass, fully knowing that I can’t handle yours. I honestly feel it is a disservice if I just sum it up with one word. Sammy (or whoever they will be), I often think about how much we love him and we don’t even know him. How happy he makes us. How excited and how willing we are to wait. Maybe that’s how we’re with each other. We didn't real ly know each other, but subconsciously we knew it would be wonderful. It is shared secret smiles… the one’s where you only see it in their eyes. Separation anxiety and counting down the days til you can see them. It has matching eyes, scars, freckles and eyebrows. Poorly timed jokes. Poorly timed laughs. Tight hugs. Love? But I don't even think love captures it all. I laughed the first time you said ‘i love you’ And I was drunk the first time I said it to you. Also, I have thought to be in love before. You were with other people and you thought you couldn’t live without them…. But here you are, living without them. And you’re fine. and then you find someone you can’t live without, And it hits you like a train. It is different. Seriously, when you know, you know. This person is exactly what you deserve because they are the exact value of your heart. Priceless. It is knowing that you deserve that. No questions asked. It is both unanswered and answered prayers. It is God sick and tired of you playing games with each other. Making you meet, but not making you stay. It is 5 silly years of misalignment. And it is going through another 500 just to have only 1. 1 perfect, complete year.
