You'll never know

what being loved by him is like

You'll never understand his humor.

The way he said hello, without even using a greeting.

His intelligence will never fit with yours

The same way his fingers sit perfectly with mine.

 

You'll never believe the transparency of his emotions,

But that's because you'll never trust the way he does,

Or care about his opinions the way he does mine,

When he's imagining the house you'll one day share.

 

You'll find his sarcasm rude or offensive,

But that's because he doesn't tell you he loves you all the time.

You'll never hear the static on the line because he won't hang up,

He never wants to say goodbye, so we talk for even longer.

 

You'll get a smirk, but never see his smile,

Or the way those baby blue eyes glisten at you,

But that's because you'll never be stood,

Embracing under the falling water together.

 

You won't hear him try and speak French,

Because, even if he can't say the words correctly,

He knows it will make me smile.

And if that fails, Alan Rickman will save the day.

 

You'll never get to steal his hoodies,

Because he shares his warmth and his life with me.

He knows being in his arms feels safe,

But also how often the firm hand is craved.

 

You'll never share that stolen dance before leaving,

And he'll never forgo his comfort for you,

But we'll sleep in the most uncomfortable bed,

Just to hold me close, even if it's selfish of me.

 

You won't find kisses softer than his,

Nor end a night with such intense love.

He'll never open bottles for you in the morning,

Because he's making sure I'm not thirsty this morning.

 

You won't see the value in a walking IMDB,

But you don't even know who Lars Von Trier is!

And you'll never get to joke that he's part yeti,

Because I'm the one using his chest as a pillow.

 

You'll never get a tour from an awful guide,

And still have a fantastic day together,

Because he will share my headphones and music,

And enjoy not having to say anything at all.

 

You won't be encouraged to chase your dreams,

Because he's too busy making time for me,

Too busy understanding my views and interests,

And keeping his mind open to a new viewpoint.

 

You'll never know why he's so great to cuddle,

Or why he is willing to tell you everything,

Because he's listening to me sing to random songs,

Even if I'm not putting any effort in.

 

You'll never understand that he's just him,

Because you'd take him for granted, and he never would.

He's too busy putting all his efforts into

Writing the perfect poem to steal my heart again.

 

You'll never have someone know what you like

Or someone who's willing to wait quite so long,

Because he knows that you should be serious

Especially when in love.

 

You will never get, know or have this from him,

Because you don't love him, nor he you.

I have had, know and get this from him,

Because I love him, and he loves me too.
