to not fight it.

is it because of the way you frown,

when you are thinking deeply;

is it because the whole hearted laugh you do,

when we make jokes;

is it the way you look at our hands,

when we interdigitate;

is it the way you look in my eyes,

when you know what i know;

is it because of the way you kiss me,

when exchanging "i love you"s;

is it because of the way you'd change even,

when all hope seems lost;

is it the way you brush my hair and cheek,

when we've just finished making love;

is it because even after i've broken your heart,

when you hate everything we ever had,

you still want nothing more than to be with me;

that makes it so damn hard to stay away from you?

if i know anything,

i know this:

brian edward duvall,

you are my stranger,

you are my life saver,

you are my best friend,

you are my lover,

you are my heart,

you are my other half,

you are my hopes & dreams,

you are my one true love,

you are my soulmate.

& i am never going to let you go.

ever.

i am sorry for the mess i've made

and for not believing you.

i am sorry that i was scared

of giving you a chance.

i know we're not perfect,

i know we often fight,

but we have more love than

i even know what to do with.

maybe it's all we got,

but it's all i need;

you're all i need.
