Love is building
bridges, not walls.
Love is not just another trophy for your collection. Love is an act of remembrance. Love is being neighborly. Love is being stupid together. Love is someone to scratch the itch you can’t reach. Love is not playing the fool with someone’s emotions. Love is being happy ever after. Love is celebrating just being together. Love is just doing nothing special together. Love is having a shared interest. Love is accepting and forgiving the things you cannot change. Love is beginning a journey together. Love is only realizing what you had when it’s gone. Love is finding the world an empty place without him. Love is when she bakes your favorite chocolate cake. Love is marking the date of your anniversary on your calendar. Love is putting your heads together to solve a problem. Love is when he speaks the words you want to hear. Love is a glow that radiates from within. Love is when he takes out the garbage without being asked. Love is still talking to each other after a big fight. Love is feeling good just because he’s close by. Love is as precious as the air we breathe. Love is letting him catch you look his way. Love is doing the cooking while he chops wood. Love is becoming an early riser so you can jog with him. Love is finding a way to introduce yourself. Love is what makes each day special. Love is being utterly spoiled. Love is having someone of your own to snuggle up to. Love is just doing nothing special together. I was watching TV ... a guy kissed a girl's cheek ... the girl hesitated a second and kissed the guy's cheek ... I waited for both of them to just go ahead and make it a real kiss. But he walked away. And I felt my heart contract because that's how it's been with you and I. As I sat there, thinking of us, thinking of how you still give me butterflies in my stomach with your close-to-lips kisses and when you brush my hair back, I realized that even if I go out with someone new, if I'm someone else's for a while, they will never, ever have my heart because it belongs wholly and completely to you. It has and always will be yours for the taking ... that's the way I want it. ~ Lyni Beth |
