It is, after all, no secret, that I think you're the most beautiful girl in the world.
But I also feel vulnerable at times, exposed to the elements without shelter. I guess the more one loves someone, the bigger the fear of losing that love.
Yes yes... of course I know love's ways are hard and steep, and I also know that to experience joy one must experience sorrow...and yes, it is a price worth paying.
I know the pain of too much tenderness - and the unnecessary worry for your safety when I'm not around.
But I also know that there must, at times, be space between us. As Kahlil once wrote, and I quote;
" Let there be spaces in your togetherness and let the winds of the heavens dance between you...the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each others shadow";
but I admit to feeling a lot happier when in your presence.
Even the simple action of you putting on lipstick is enough to make me smile...
...or just hearing you sing along with the TV ads...
...or seeing you brush your teeth with your foam-coated tongue bobbing up and down...
...or seeing your first sleepy but sparkling smile in the morning...
...or seeing you attempting to cook a new dish, covered in ingredients from head to toe...
...or watching you lick the cake-mix remains off the bowl...
...or hearing you mispronounce an English word and keep repeating it over and over again until you get it right...
... but most of all...
...I love to see you smile...
...because...
...I love you
