Where can I even start?

You are the epitome of perfection

When I see you, I see the world

Your eyes are gateways to alternate worlds

Your heart is the kindest I've ever known.


Today is February 14th. 

A normal Thursday. 

I see you everywhere I go

And I'd never want to change that.


When I'm around you, I'm so happy

And there isn't an eloquent, extravagant way to say it.

You consume the room, as soon as you step through the door

And I know you feel the way I do

Just not for me.


Wherever she goes, you follow

I see a pure reflection of my own actions

And it breaks my heart

But you're happy.


And that's all that matters.

If you're happy, so am I

I would never try and jeopardise you two

Because what kind of person would that make me?

Certainly not worthy of your love.


So instead, I put on a facade

I shower you two with compliments

I show you guys that I'm happy for you

Because in the end, I am


All I want is for you to be happy,

Whether that's with me

Or with her.

You know what's best for yourself

And I trust you with my life


So I wish you the world

I hope you live a life of joy

And happiness

And love


And I hope you never forget

That I will always be here for you

No matter what you need 

Because your happiness is worth more than anything to me.
