Why I love you…

This is just to let you know
that i could love like you do me
that is to say, you are my whole world and everything.

That this is just to say you being my one and only and also, i just wanted to tell you, that I remember you were nervous the first time you kissed me
and that you tasted sweet like mint
And whiskey.

When you brought me sun flowers
everyday and kissed me awake
every morning and you knew when you were feeling lonely and you when i was just feeling alone, but not any more.

You know me well enough to know
that i think i look beautiful at two o’clock in the morning, and I think everything looks beautiful
at two o’clock in the morning.

When you kissed me in the rain even if my makeup smears and you hugged me and hold my hand.

When you carried me up the mountain, and when you build me castles, telling me stories about the constellations and the Parthanon.

When you would let me watch and listen stars in my eyes, know I love you so easily and get hurt too often.

When you know all the little things about me that i don’t know about myself and that you kissed the freckles
on my shoulders whenever you wanted to tell me you loved me and i would whisper it back, beneath the sheets, a promise too beautiful and why I will never feel guilty about loving or wanting you so much.
These are the reasons why I could love you as much as I do.
