The human soul is a beautiful thing, something so unique and lovely. It is made up of a culmination of experiences and feelings. Your soul is warm, tinted with the reds, oranges, and yellows of autumn. You are a rainy day spent curled up in a bay window with a warm cup of tea and a well-loved book, the kind with a creased spine and pages that are worn. You are a pile of cozy blankets. You are soft sweaters and old movies. You are sleepy kisses and fireside conversations. You are old records and whispered confessions under the stars.
Home has always been a feeling for me, and nothing feels righter than sitting in your arms. You turn me into a well of emotions. You say my name and I light up; you call me yours and I am full of butterflies. When you grab my hand, I am aflame with admiration. Your laugh is so wonderful, it brightens a whole room and makes my heart melt like butter. You are sweeter than honey and you are filled with passion.
I want to lay in your arms and wake each morning next to you. I want to place gentle kisses on your forehead and run my fingers through your hair. I want to laugh so hard that I'm in tears because you've done something silly. You are very clever, ever quick when it comes to thinking on your feet. You are charming, knowing exactly what to say to make me weak in the knees. You make me feel safe, comfortable.
I want to stay by your side until the end of time. You are always on my mind, and I break into the softest smiles knowing that you love me as much as I love you. I desire to get so lost in you. I want to see the light in your eyes and get dizzy from your kisses. I want to get so tangled up in your embrace that I can no longer tell what is me and what is you.
