Letters to the Love of My Life

Unconditional

b,
you know when i say i love you i don't mean only when you smile with all your teeth
i don't mean only when you are exited to see me
i don't mean only when you look at me with all the love in the world
i don't mean only when you're in my arms to hold.

i mean when we fight i cant help but want to remove it all the second it happens
i mean the reason i tell you i love you everyday even when you leave it on opened
i mean when i know you don't feel love for me or even like me
i mean the reason i'm so scared for you to leave

because in spite of the negative i have never gone to sleep without missing your embrace
i wake up every morning wishing i could see your face
i want to build a future we can mold into something beautiful
i want that whether things are amazing or awful.

i mean loving you is like breathing i don't have to think about it i just always will
i will stand here waiting for you unchanging and still
because whoever convinced you that you were only loved for the good moments was wrong
they didn't see you in every sunset or hear you in every song

i love you more than anything, even when you hate me
because the love i give you i mean unconditionally
even if someday you decide you don't want to be near me anymore
i will wait forever, and it will be you who i'm waiting for.
