This Human.

Today's theme song: Tori Kelly feat. Ed Sheeran - I Was Made For Loving You

He brings joy to my heart just by looking at me in that special way.
Words can only say so much. Energy is everything.
Even on rough days, when I am determined to be in a foul mood, one smile from him & my world is turned around 180 degrees.

Seriously. It's not even funny. It's like my invisible shield has met its Kryptonite.

That smile. Oh God. I must have mentioned this a million times, it's starting to come off as insincere.
Even when we were just acquaintances, his smile was one of the first things that captured my heart.
I believe I've never seen a smile that bright.

We are the same, yet polar opposites in some ways.
The same amount of stubbornness we share; makes things challenging at times.

I will never forget the first time I heard him say 'I love you'. To his dog.
It gave me the courage to say the same to my cat.
Before that, it was something I always psychic-ly communicated to him, never verbally.
The cat, I mean.

Yes, this Human & I are weird like that.
But that's one of the things I love about us so much.

He shows me a different way of being.
Ways that have been buried deep within me, forgotten. Covered by the layers of earth society had kicked onto.

His accent has faded with time.
Yet his voice feeds my heart more than any genre of music can.

We are so similar, yet dissimilar.
So much grounded, balanced masculine energy.
It only accentuates the feminine in me.

Where is that tomboy I used to treasure so much?
She is slowly fading away.
Good riddance.

He doesn't make me want to be a better person.
I am a better person, because of him.
Because of all the little things that he doesn't even realize he's doing.
Because of all the things that he does realize he's doing.

He is the gardener I have been waiting for.
With proper tending to, the garden flourishes.
The right amount of fertilizer is given.
Adequate amount of hydration provided.
The vines are gently guided by a trellis, in order for them to receive the maximum amount of sunlight.
Weeds are removed.
Pruning is also necessary. Not too much though. Too much, & a plant can perish.

Did I mention his smile?
What about that wicked brand of humour?

This Human is so special to me.
He is everything I want in a man.
& everything I never knew I wanted.
Or needed.

In all his perfectly imperfectness, I love him.
