Here’s the thing: I’ve been waiting.
For the other foot to fall
For the fatal flaw to appear
For the catch.
Nobody I’ve ever known has been like you.
Powerful, yet gentle.
Opinionated, yet willing to listen.
Focused on the details, yet still keeping in mind the message.
An explorer who is willing to stay where I am comfortable.
A perfectionist who claims to find me perfect.
You are amazing.
When I say that, you smile. Amazing is an overused, soft, indeterminate word.
But it comes to mind when I see you.
Because I can’t believe you’re in love with me.
And I just can’t find the damned catch.
