10 things that I adore

your smell,
the way you look at me
the way you almost kiss me
the energy that I receive from you
the way you just allow my hand in yours
the way you hold me in front of a garage door
the way you playfully slide your tong on your teeth
the little wrinkles under your eyes when you smile
your response to elbow burns amidst foreign sheets
the fact that you can put your hand above my knee
and the way I long for you beside me
