Your name

My love language is your name 

I say it over and over cause I want you to know 

that you aren’t to blame for my own mistakes 

I have trouble with love, even so 

I healed and sewed myself back together 

every time I was rejected by another lover 

I am hoping that you are not the same 

I’m not ready to play this exact same game, with you 

I need your name to marinate on my tongue 

So when I say it, it’s said a way no one has ever said it before 

I want you to know that the person I love is not anyone else, it’s you 

Cause to me there is no one else who laughs the same way you do 

There’s no other person who can convince me to stay up with them on week nights; like you

No one I’ve ever met has been able to put songs on a shared playlist, that I already had hearted; except for you 

And so you and your name are something special
You’re named after the blandest color 

Yet your aura

makes the prettiest rainbow

I’ve ever seen
