Miraculous

is the only word that can come close to describing this love

this love is buying plane tickets and hiking across islands
this love is walking through the rain to find out that the indian place closes at 9
this loving is keeping both hands on the steering wheel

while i have no idea how many sleepless nights are to come
i know i'll always remember
the way your hand cups my cheek
and the way you talk about your mom
when we sat down at dinner and you said
in one breath
"let's say 5 things we love about each other i'll go first"
and how you introduce me to your friends
i won't forget your jawline or how your eyes change color in the light
or when you made me give you a kiss every time i stopped holding your hand on campus
i'll never forget when we first kissed and the world spun around us
and we both knew it was right
or when we stayed up until 3 am talking on our first date in my stupid dorm living room
i'll never forget the beaches we laid on
or the stories you told
and the way your eyes opened wide while telling them

i'll never forget the way you make me feel
like i'm worth more than money could buy
but if money could
you would
no matter the cost
