We are all on our own separate paths leading us through our lives. Our paths have now become intertwined. (Our hearts molded together, thoughts linked, and hands clasped as one.)

Last night I sat in my room and used the sky as my personal canvas. I painted your face alongside the stars, so I wouldn’t be the only one to know what an angel really looks like. (This way you were up there for the world to soak in) I’m so used to writing love stories, made up tales from the depths of my imagination, but for once the characters are real, the plot true, and the story my own. (I counted down the days until you finally said, “I love you.”) Even though you said it first, I hope you know I was only waiting for the perfect time to say it back. (Now that I have said it, I can’t seem to say it enough)


--------


The first time I left I made you cry on the roof alone. (I never wanted to hurt you) The second time I left it nearly killed us both. I promise you, (even though I know I don’t deserve to be trusted) there will be no third time. Even if I wanted to run and hide again, my heart would force me to crawl right back into your arms. (Your soft, warm, forgiving arms)


--------



We now lay here curled up under the covers, doused in silence. (When I’m with you I don’t even need to say anything) I can feel the rhythmic beating of your heart and your steady breathing. I would give anything in the world to never be away from you. You look me in the eyes intently until I ask you what you’re doing, purely out of curiosity. (I hardly mind staring right back into your big brown eyes that make my heart jump) Muffled by an adorable giggle, you reply, “I want to remember every detail about you.” You then give me a kiss and trace the outline of my face. I’ve never felt safer.


--------


I honestly cannot get enough of you. I think about you all day, talk to you whenever I can, (miss you when I can’t) and you’ve even imagined to slide your way into my dream world. Whenever I’m with you I take mental pictures of you to keep forever and ever. I never want to forget your delicately-made face and smile that doesn’t just light up my world, but the entire universe. I sleep so little that I hardly even know what it is anymore. (You reminded me that it is when I close my eyes and dream of you) You always give me that face when I walk into the room. (The one where you scrunch your nose and smile up at me) The same face that always manages to make me smile, no matter how upset I maybe.


---------


I never was one to smile much, but ever since I met you, it’s all I can seem to do anymore. You’re one of a kind and you have little in common with all the other girls I’ve crushed on and dated. (They could never measure up to you) You actually trust me. You love me for me. You’re nothing like my type. You’re far better and I hope you know that. I can’t imagine another day without you and my only regret, I didn’t find you sooner.
