#youz

when you snapped the wishbone tonight

because i really had nothing left to wish

for because of the way you’ve been

infiltrating every part of my heart

i watched a video you sent me

and took a picture of myself after

just to see what i looked like when

i look at you and as it turns out i appear

to be a tad bit smitten with you

to put it quite lightly

i don’t ever want to

i hold the universe in my palms

because the thought of how you treat

me makes me cry because i don’t know

how i could possibly deserve someone

who cares for me so deeply and just

the way ive always hoped for -

i just never thought it could be real

and tonight i can’t sleep because

i just can’t believe the universe

would give me of all people such

a gift in the form of a person

i don’t deserve you but i want

to the pier and on the water

in the cold we watched

the sun set and the nearly full

moon rise at the same time which

is apparently a rare occurrence but

even though it was such a beautiful

miracle of nature it was nothing compared

to the way i felt when you kissed me out

there in the whipping wind yet id never

felt so warm and happy except maybe when

you kissed me under the twinkling garland lights

and i could feel how much you meant it

and i hope you could feel how much i

care about you and how special you

are to me and how much you make

me believe in things like fate and timing

and from when we met i felt like i knew

you somehow before or perhaps in a

different world we were together but

now it’s almost a year later and in

this one we find ourselves free of

all the reasons we couldn’t be together

you make me feel so lucky that i cry

after you drop me off because of course

you insist on driving and opening my doors

for me and holding my waist when we walk
