Things I'd like to tell you
I'm sorry sometimes I'm quiet
Every time I bump your shoulder
it's because secretly I want
To feel your warm touch
I don't even know what a good kiss is
But kissing you makes my heart
want to explode
I could hug you forever
Or we could walk in the rain for eternity
I couldn't care less
As long as your fingers
are Intwined with mine
Your hands are the feeling of flower petals
and your perfume is the smell of rain and wet grass
Your hair is the softest thing on earth
And I get lost in your crushing blue eyes
Your eyelashes are long enough
to start a tornado from a single blink
But you don't wear make up
When I think about you
My heart beats a mile a minute
And I feel like it's about to explode
Thoughts of you keep me up at night
And wake me up in the morning
Because I have to send you a "good night" text
And i won't wake up with out your "good morning"
When I say thank you out of the blue
It doesn't mean you've done anything particularly special
It means I'm glad you choosing me
Because I can't imagine no having you
You claim you've never seen me sad
But some days you were the only thing keeping me together
Apparently I'm much better
at hiding my pain than I thought
Those two fantas you bought me
saved me from my own thoughts
And gave me hope in a tomorrow
And you probably don't even know it
You probably didn't even know
That my dog died
But you were the reason
I made it through it
Im pretty sure I've lost an eye and a leg with all the people I've dated
(Not an arm because I need both of those for hugging you)
But it was worth it to find you
When you say "I love you more" my heart crumples
Like a crushed rose
Because you'll never understand how much you mean to me
And I'm no good at saying it
I've written you almost a dozen poems
But I'm too afraid to show you any of them
Because the time isn't right
Or it's way off subject
Or the poem is way too long to read or send over text anyways
So I'll add this to the list
Of things I'll show you
When you finally ask
