You make me laugh You like good films You like good music (even if I don't know who you're listening to sometimes) You like to travel We like the same books You can sing- you should do it more You can write- and I don't just mean that you can spell You can do shorthand properly and it's like you've written in code. You can really cook You often cook for me - in fact most of the time. You make a really good g&t You're close to your family I can look at your family and really see where parts of your personality come from You're generous with others You don't like to let people down You can be very sensitive- I should remember that You're not afraid to try things You are afraid of failure You have a good work ethic You're ambitious You like to learn When you get silly drunk or silly tired and it makes you adorable For the way you hold me The way you kiss me The way you look at me sometimes For the way that you're afraid of missing something even though those are the things that are likely to take you away from me. The way you laugh and sigh when you get into my bed because it's so warm and comfortable. That always makes me smile. You're not too proud to say sorry. For your shoulders Your arms That place on your back between your shoulder blades The way you always smell really good. The way you look after me when I'm ill or hungover For putting a soft lamp in your bedroom The way you run your fingers through my hair The way that you tell me you're going to switch the light on in the morning so that I can hide under the covers For bringing me coffee in bed on Sundays and random other days too. For making me feel really welcome with your family For saying you'll try harder and then actually trying For coming on so much in the talking about feelings stakes- I know it still makes you uncomfortable but you do it anyway. The way you reach out for me during the night and pull me in close to you That there are so many things that I don't know about you yet and gradually find out from other people You don't show off about having travelled the world ( I wish you'd tell me more about it!) That you ask your mum for advice That you don't want to end up like your dad. That you're close to your brothers. ..... .... ... .. .
