Is there anything strangerAs sleeping on the same bed With a man who has changed?Not in who he was, But in the way that He has looked at you.

Despite everythingI still thank the universe For blessing me with you As my firstIf I could love you this much For this long— And on my first try — Then surely,I could love someone else more Far better,Far longer.

Should I be ThankfulOr Regretful That my only idea Of loveIsYou?

I told everyoneI love youSorry if they knew before youTo be fair,I think everyone knew Before I did, too.

6 A.M.Waking up is never the sameNot without your arms tangled up in mine Not without your kiss on my cheekNot without you telling me,“You look beautiful today.

When I met youI’ve always wondered How I’ve never met Anyone quite like youWhen we partedI’ve always wondered How everyone else Reminded me of you.

Was I a secret not worth sharing OrWas I fact not worth telling?

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT YOUYour handHow you held the small of my backYour fingersHow it grasped mine as we crossed the streetYour feetHow it led us to your roomThe chain on your neckHow it slid through my fingers as I pulled you inYour eyesHow it spoke to meYour bedHow it welcomed us bothYour lipsOh, how it silenced my doubts.
