lee tomlinson's definitions
When people look at you, they only see you for your looks. While your looks are what drew me into you, it was also your kindness. People see you as this big, tough guy, but I know what's underneath all of those layers. Your voice is a song I want on repeat, I want the color of your eyes painted on my wall and I want your fingertips on my skin for eternity. You have passion and drive, and you don't think you are smart but I think you are. You don't smile fully because you don't like your crooked teeth - but I love the small gap in between your two front teeth - and your laugh is contagious and just fills up the room. But I know you will never look at me like you do with other girls. You look at girls who have the confidence to make the first move, girls with long blonde hair, girls who have faces you remember when just meeting them and girls who are not me. You have touched me with such grace that I can never forget, and I fell asleep to your rhythmic breathing with my hand on your heart. As I laid next to you - not even a space between us - I cried softly when you went to bed, knowing you could never be mine.
