It Was The Way

It was in the way you looked at me
In a room full of beauties
Like I was the only person in the world

It was the way you said my name
In my ear or across the room
Like it held magic within it

It was the way you held my hand
Everywhere we went
Like we were two pieces of the same puzzle

It was the way you kissed my forehead
Sending the butterflies fluttering
Like you were erasing the past

It was the way you held me close to you
Letting me hear your heartbeat
Like you were my life line

It was the way you brushed the hair from my eyes
Gazing into my eyes
Like you could see my very soul

It was the way you listened to me
Remembering the smallest of details
Like you were memorizing me

It was the way you spoke about me
When you thought I wasn't around
Like I was always on your mind

It was the way you called me out of the blue
Just to tell me random things
Like you wanted to share your life with me

It was the way you didn't pause
Just spilling the truth to me
Like you knew what was important to me

It was the way you wrapped me in a hug when I cried
Wiping away each of my tears
Like you would never run

It was the way you kissed each of my scars and tattoos
Not afraid of my past or my dreams
Like you were learning me and healing me

It was the way you sang to me
Words written just for me
Like I was your muse

It was the way that you made me a better version of myself
It was the way that you were unashamedly you
That made me fall for you
