Truth

You are great,

But everyday

I stop myself from telling you

That you're funny as hell.

That you make me laugh 

When I don't want to

(Which is no easy feat).

That you're always the same.

You always look good,

Even when you've had a long day,

No matter how much we've been screwing

You're still so fucking handsome.

& God damn but you're smart.

You rant about things

That I can't even comprehend,

& I take your word as gospel

Because when you talk like that

I know you're right,

Without question.

I make effort for you

Because somehow what you think of me

Means more than anything else.

& I'm falling for you,

Which terrifies me

Because you deserve more 

Than this shell.

But please stay.
