but my love (Wattys2014 Talk of the Town Winner)

➵doce

but my love,

you don't know how much i miss

the immature, carefree version of you

you used to laugh at everything

and smirk at inappropriate jokes.

now you're just there

the distance between you and your friends goes for

miles and miles

you only smile from time to time,

yet it is never genuine

but my love,

you're like faded, ink blotched pages

the story's there, but it's unreadable

the adventure's still there, yet it's practically a blob on black ink

just so you know, my love,

i think i loved you at your best (when you were happy)

but i'm a hundred percent sure,

that my love for you has done nothing but become amplified (when you became sad)

oh, my love.

i'll say this a hundred times (in my head, of course)

i'm in love with your quirks and your flaws.

i'm in love with your smile and your tears

i'm in love with your ocean blue eyes and your frown

i'm in love with your everything

i want to scream it from the eiffel tower

I'm in love with you, my love!
