HOW I KNEW YOU WERE THE ONE...

Hey Baby,

You asked me how I knew you were the one, I didn’t have answer then but I do now!

I knew it first from when you said “I love you”

I knew it second from when you said “my heart belongs to you”.

I knew it third the day you said “I will always love you”.

I knew it fourth when you promised me to be a part of my world. 

I knew it fifth and would always know from the day you didn’t run when we had a storm. 

When you said “let’s take a drive”, and you drove me close to the water side and watch my legs stay on yours and you said “with you, I am calm”.

When you said “You make me laugh”, I resonated with that because all I ever want to do is be your place of joy. 

When I said “bring your hands” and you said “anything that has your hands in it, flourishes so yes have my hand” I knew it was you and I could trust this journey with you.

When you called me the most thoughtful person, I couldn’t get over the fact that you really are my person. 

That day that you said to me, “whatever happens, just come to me” I knew I would never be a stranger in your heart.

You asked me how I knew it was you.

It’s the way you make love seamless.

It’s the way you call me yours.

It’s the way you tell me we will get there.

It’s how you make me “home”.

It’s how you trust my judgement, it’s how your words make me whole.

It’s how you cheer me up and how my nostrils can feel your cologne from far.

It’s how love is childish with you, but matured enough to stand the storm. 

It’s how I am always yours and how you say it enough.

Heck, it’s the grin on your face whenever you see me walking near.

How you hold me close to your chest, how you say “come here”.

I knew it was you when you became my space.

My goals stopped to carry a stranger’s face.

When you became a part of all I gave.

When you gave yourself to things I’ve made.

I knew it was you and I will always know.
