Idk what to title this

time is only a figment of my imagination,

with that being said

a day feels like a lifetime with you.

trying to decipher this feeling

needs no translation.

what we have here

is something more than true.

since the first time we kissed in my room

i knew there was something different

when our lips touched it's like the flowers bloomed

you stole my heart in the very same instant.

you are simply spectacular,

you came into my life so suddenly

and i didn't question this encounter.

i knew from the first time we kissed

that something was right.

like the stars had aligned perfectly above us in the night and i knew that when i was with you

everything was going to be alright.

whenever i'm with you,

you make me feel so pretty,

walking through Manhattan in the dark

without a care in the world,

still confused as to how i found you

in such a big city.

as i stare at the skyline to every light

that shined across the water

i felt so lucky to say

i found someone i could call my own.

the way i feel when i'm with you

its a feeling i've never known.

i'm still asking myself how could someone like you

could want someone like me?

i know they call me sunflower for a reason

but sometimes i swear you shine brighter than me.

you leave me in awe,

and every time we kiss i swear we travel across galaxies.

we teleport to somewhere where it never rains

and all the pain you ever felt goes away

and where the sun always shines,

where grass is always greener on our side.

where we can lay out a blanket

and lay on our backs

and talk about our past

until the world stops spinning.

that is where you take me.

i like you so much,

some might even say i'm in love with you.

i haven't found the words to tell you that though

but i know you can hear it,

you hear it when you stare into my eyes

and get lost in them in between breathtaking kisses,

after mentally sharing thoughts

in our moments of comfortable silence,

in every hug

when we grab each other just a little bit tighter

as to say "i understand what you're thinking".

it's there...

the love we share is there lurking in silence.

i'm fighting it away

because how could something this good stay

but honestly i'm in this for the long run,

i know this relationship is still young

but sometimes certain things are just meant to be.

our friends see it

and i know i do,

but not even a month in

and we have a better relationship

than most married couples do.

you are my sun & my moon

and its hard to believe that i was the one that you'd choose, but i am forever grateful for everything you do,

from opening the door

to just buying me food.

you are all that i need

and for that reason

you don't ever have to worry

about me trying to leave.
