Chapter 35 - Words Just Shy of Love

I have lived for only a short while,

Yet my words speak of a thousand lifetimes of experiences.

You have lived for only a short while,

But your eyes told a tale of a million souls.

When my gaze met yours,

My heart became pure.

When my ears were blessed with your voice,

I couldn't think of more beautiful sound.

When your words found their way to my heart,

My soul heard them too.

When you gave me the truth,

My passion grew a thousand-fold.

When I heard the song that your heart sang,

My heart whispered back.

My mind has been filled with you,

My goals now include you.

I want to be your rock,

Your foundation,

Your best friend,

Your partner,

Your home.

And I want you to be all those things.

I want to make you want to be the best version of yourself.

I want to be the best version of myself for you.

My soul sings a melody that only you can harmonize.

My mind seeks a solution only you know the answer to.

My eyes search for a beauty only you can show.

My ears listen for a tune only you can bellow.

My heart wants a home only you can provide.
