It’s you.

It was you back then.

 

And still till this day,

 

It’s you.

It’s always been you,

 

From the moment we made eye contact,
And flashed each other a smile.
To the moment we shared our first joke,
And laughed our night away.

 

How are you still here?
Why are you still here?
Why haven’t you gone away,
In search for your Cinderella?

 

Even after all this time,
You still manage to amaze me.
With every word you say,
The way that they roll off the tip of your tongue.

 

And still till this day,

 

I look at you and I see my childhood all over again.
I look at you and I see love, hope.
I look at you and I see the brightest future known to man.

 

It’s been you for the last 10 years
Even now I-i-i-i still stutter.
My cheeks still turn rosy red.
And my eyes light up with excitement,
Everytime I hear your name.

 

We might be older now,
But we still act like we’re 14.
Oh— those sweet memories,
It’s like they never left.

 

All those times that we would giggle,
Share our deepest, darkest secrets.
When we would dance in the middle of the rain,
Not caring what anyone had to say.

 

Best word when it comes to us?
We.

 

We share our passions,
Our success.
We have 3 of our own,
Our most prized possessions.

 

Our love is bigger than the solar system,
Stronger than the strongest man alive,
And wiser than King Solomon.

 

You were my all back then,
My sunrise.

 

And still to this day,

 

You’re the reason that I wake up every morning,
You’re my other half.

@FakingASmile OMG, thank you so much! I really do appreciate it. I didn't think that I would be any good at these but I took my risks. Thank you for the support, love.
