I love you.
I love your truth, your blunt brutality.
I love the giddy glint in your eyes, your psychadelic green glimmer, a kaleidoscope taking shape before me.

Your eyes laugh and love and reflect my soul back.

You. Get. Me.

You get me as I am and accepted me as I was before.

Staying up late, walking under the stars, daring me to kiss you on that Edwardsville park swing.
Every chance you got, we went head to head.
Butting heads and cracking each other up until crying, painting and drawing without saying one word.

I fell for your quirky laugh and happy disposition, your love for art and your self-discipline.

You loved me beyond my innocence lost.
You loved me through the lying games, and my inner rage.

You sought my heart and broke me to set me free.

I will love you endlessly.

You were and still are the only person who gets me.

    The most beautiful thing about love is discovering a little piece of ourselves in our lover’s heart. Your poem is lovely and captures this truth so well!
