Literature Text

even when my words
aren't quite as poetic
as you'd like them
to be

always remember that
though i may not be
the most flowery
or romantic

you're always my
top priority

and everything i do

the way i breathe,
the way i walk,
the way i hug you,
the way i kiss you,
the way i live

is all catered to you

and i speak through
cotton
because i can't
form the right words
or sentences or
phrases
to sound how you
deserve to be spoken to

but honey it's not because
i don' try

very contrary to that
i try too hard

and maybe i'm not the perfect
guy

and maybe you don't need
perfection

but i'm doing everything i can
to be what you need

and if that involves back
breaking labor
and efforts beyond
my means

then please darling
be patient
and know that
i'm trying

you just have to give me a chance.

I loved this :) It's so... sweet. :)
"and maybe you don't need
perfection" :heart: there are many other lines I loved, but that just set off the rest of the pouring love of emotions.
