Why do I love him?

Do you realise that you love a bunch of meat and bones? A gale of blood that flows through veins or a creature that stole your smiles after it has blurred your soul with tears? 
You open your eyes full of hope to see his face again, even though it has only been a couple of hours since sleep has stolen this view from you? And how can you, again, forget the last fight that has mended your heart with doubts? 

Why do I love him? 

Because I like when he whispers kind words into my ear or when I hear his abrupt breath. I like his capacity of holding onto small, insignificant things which for some may mean nothing but for me, they mean the world. 
Next to him I am always myself and the child within me isn't scared to show up. 
I love to wait for him to come back home and cuddle into his arms like I would do this for the first time. 
I like to kiss him good night and fall asleep with the thought that he knows I love him the most and I will always be his shadow when he ain't next to me. 

That is why I love him.
