Bonus: how I love you

Attraction makes everything stand still for a moment, suddenly everything fades into the background, and all you can hear is the beating of your heart; the person before you is all that matters, all you want.

This burst of excitement and curiosity that tingles all throughout your body very intensely. You feel a bit high. Time stops and you are totally focused on something you find beautiful, interesting, and amazing

The heart flutters, the mind races, the palms sweat, euphoria engulfs your senses. I just can't wipe the smile off of my face.

Day 19: what day is today?

When I am dead, my dearest,

Sing no sad songs for me;

Plant thou no roses at my head,

Nor shady cypress tree:

Be the green grass above me

With showers and dewdrops wet;

And if thou wilt, remember,

And if thou wilt, forget.

I shall not see the shadows,

I shall not feel the rain;

I shall not hear the nightingale

Sing on, as if in pain:

And dreaming through the twilight

That doth not rise nor set,

Happily I may remember,

And happily may forget.

It would be awesome if I could say I wrote that, but it's by Christina Rossetti during the Victorian era. I had to read it for class and I absolutely love it.

"Be the green grass above me with showers and dewdrops wet."

I love that verse! It is just seems awesome to me for some reason. I guess it's kinda morbid, but i can relate to that a love like that. It's like a want to be near another and wanting to make them to be happy and to find happiness myself. You are my strength, the rock I stand on. You are my shelter when I can't stand the storm. When I find myself in doubt I look for you to help me out. I hope you know how much I hope for and believe in you. I can't picture life without you. I love you more then anything I could say. So I guess it makes me feel how I would feel to ever lose you. And it makes me fear it I love you the more for all you do. And really you do a lot, probably even more then I give you credit for. I forget so much to love you for who you are and sometimes I'm a terrible listener or I don't give you the attention you deserve. You are doing a wonderful job and make me so happy. I just want to make sure that in the midst of this crazy life around us you know how much I really love you.
