Here’s the answer to your repetitive question.
The one I always choose to avoid.
The one I always respond to with “I can’t explain it.”
Truth is, I just can’t explain it to you.
I know exactly what I love about you;
I love the way you smile. The way your eyes squint when you do. How I can’t help but smile back.
I love the way you hold my hand. Your fingers running along mine. The way you lock your hold, like you never want to let go.
I love how you’d do anything to make me happy. How you’ll skip class to get a line-up, just because I like the way you look that way.
I love that you’re just as nervous as I am. The way you tremble when you touch me. The way you look at me, as if to ask if you’re doing it right.
I love how jealous you get. How I’m yours, and only yours. They way you let the other boys know not to come around.
I love the obsession you have with my face. The way you run your fingertips along my skin. The way you hold your cheek to mine.
I love the way you brush your nose against mine. That you keep your eyes on mine the whole time. How happy you look when you’re that close to me.
I love that you understand when to give me space. The way you can wait for me until I’m ready. The way you’ll always be listening.
I love the way you smell. How you let me keep your clothes for as long as I want them, just so you’re with me in some way.
I love that you text me just to ask if I’m okay. The way you’re always thinking of me.
I love how you offer to do anything for me. The way you ask to pay for my movie. The fact you wanted to apply to Humber so I wouldn’t be alone.
I love that you dream of me and tell me the next day. The way you ask me to dream of you too. The fact that I actually do, almost every night.
I love that you make it seem like I’m your favourite. The way you compliment me. The way you get me to blush every single time you do.
I love the way you kiss me. That you’re scared, but passionate. How you’re sad when it’s over, but you can’t stop smiling.
I love that I’m the only one that sees this side of you.
