Understood



I didn’t believe in love
Not before I met Him
I didn’t understand how a person could fall in love someone
Platonic love yes
Romantic love No
I did know I loved his
Smile
His hair
His body
His feelings
His walk
His talk
His lips
His good
His bad
I did know I loved
The way he cared
The way he protected
The way he spoke
The way he looked at me
The way he loved Me
And I finally understood.
