Talkative

You talk a lot and I do mean a lot endlessly, really but you know I don't mind Because I love to hear your voice even if I don't always decipher the exact words Your voice washes over me like sunlight and I just soak it all in I don't really need to speak or respond whenever you take a breath I just chip in with a yeah or a mm hmm just so you know I'm still listening I watch you talk your aquamarine eyes shining and you're completely animated about this topic if it's science or the funny pages, I'm not sure, and I can see the sunlight glint off your hair, the gleam a coppery color And I just sit back relax and let you talk trying to listen because I know when I try my voice catches and my words get stuck in my throat because I can't really speak around you You make me nervous sometimes and I'm sure that you know that but I love you anyway
