Love is ...

Love is ...

Falling asleep in their arms
When you've never been able to fall asleep in anyone else's

Looking into their eyes then realizing
Even though they're looking back, you're not just looking

Not seeing them as a person,
Seeing them as the person

Being able to cry for them,
When you could never cry for yourself

Not picturing a life with them,
Having a life with them

Love is ...

The best sex of your life
Even if you don't have sex

Kissing and making up
Every time

Being afraid of what they're capable of
But still standing in their way

Doing nothing all day
Yet the time flies by without your noticing

Driving a half hour
To have a five minute conversation

Love is ...

The most frustrating part of life
But also the happiest

Wanting to wring their neck
But hugging them instead

Giving a gift
Just because it's Sunday

Losing control
To have them fix it

Knowing they will always be there
Even when you don't want them to be

Love is ...

Taking ten minutes
To say good-bye for the night

Sitting for hours at a time
Not saying a word, but content

Losing reality
But being caught in their eyes

Holding on like you'll never let go
For no reason at all

What you search your whole life for
And only sometimes find
