for six years
we were stuck
with repetitive conversations
we could not say what we could have said
your eyes spoke
a certain language
to me they said words
I only now comprehend
we met in passing
every now and then
occasionally hinting
of our mutual adoration
your smile said
"I love you"
before I learned
to see
all at once
the stars aligned
as we orbited the universe
of our bodies, hearts, and minds
your arms
make me feel safe
no longer was I
the abandoned runaway
the way you love me
chases away
darkness, doubt
and fear
your heartbeat
in my ears
said I could be yours
forever
the way you love me
brings me
smiles, joy, warmth
and laughter
your soul
intertwined with mine
makes the light within
grow brighter
the way you love me
cannot be bought
with manipulation
or fortune
your ears
heard my voice
before I learned
to speak
the way you love me
is a source of life
I cannot live
without
six years
have passed
onward, further
we go
learning, living
loving each other
makes the wait
completely worth it
we are now
ignited fusion
our love sealed
together by fire
the way you love me
gives way
to hopes and dreams
I never imagined
