I just like you, okay?
Just in case 
 you didn't know,
 here are a few things I like:
 
 I like when you hold my hand in public,
 even though I know you're not supposed to.
 It just makes me happy, you know?
 Because I'm yours,
 and I wish the whole world could know.
 I like when you wrap your arms around me,
 and you wipe away my tears,
 because then I feel,
  even for just a moment,
 as if everything will be alright.
 I like it when your fingers graze my skin,
 and send chills running up my spine.
 I like when we play fight
 and wrestle around in bed,
 and when you toss me around
 because you don't realize how light I am
 and how strong you are.
 I like when you call me beautiful,
 and when you leave good morning texts.
 I like your lips
 because they're always so welcoming,
 and sometimes I just can't help myself.
 I like the sound of your voice,
 so soothing and calm,
 and when you call me your baby,
 because it makes me feel so special.
 I like smoking cigarettes in the basement,
 and listening to all the interesting things
 you always have to say.
 I like cuddling
 and watching Army of Darkness with you
 because I had never seen it before
 but I'm not sure why.
 I like your smile,
 because you're so charming
 and you don't even realize it.
 I like when you worry about me
 because then I know you care.
 I like staring into your eyes,
 because they're always a different color
 every time I see you.
 I like your sweet little kisses
 on my forehead,
 on my nose,
 on my lips.
 
 But most of all
 I like that you've never given up
 and you love me for who I am,
 even with this doom and gloom,
 even with my aching soul.
