"I love the way you say my name
and how you smile when I haven't even finished my story
I adore how you look at me when I'm talking
and how your laugh sounds when someone tells a joke
I can't stop thinking about the way your hair falls in your face
or the dimple on your cheek
and the way your lips form
I can't stop thinking about you
but I bet you say his name more often
and you smile wider around him
you probably look at him when he's not paying attention
and you laugh harder when you're with him
and right now he's about to push your hair behind your ears and tell you that you look pretty
when actually, you look breathtaking
and he'll get to see the dimple on the side of your cheek
but he won't point out how cute it is
he'll just kiss your forehead and tell you goodnight
when I would kiss your lips and walk you home
and I bet he loves you
but he can't love you like I will."
