The Kind Of Love I’ll Give You

I’ll love you in a thousand ways and one. In the little ways I know how. Like the things that couples promise each other in their wedding vows.

Won’t promise a forever but I’ll love you now. The future’s uncertain but we’ve got this far somehow.

Ask the universe how I got so damn lucky kind of love.

Sing songs in the car on top of our lungs on a road trip because I’m deliriously happy, glad, at peace, contented and everything good that you make me feel.

Skipping home from work because it’s you that I’m coming home to kind of love.

Appreciate you and what you do on the regular because you’re an amazing human being. I’ll meet your demands, whatever they are.
