All The Words I Could Never Say

I wish you could see you as I do

All The Words I Could Never Say
ultralinx.com

Words well up inside my mind like a tornado ready to destroy its surroundings. These words are ones I wish to tell you but never have the courage to. They sit in my mind in an unlocked drawer, hidden away from my conscious, hidden away from my heart, hidden away from you. The words drive me mad, rattling the box, wishing to escape. But, I've never let them win, they shall never get the key. If I had the courage to utter them off my tongue, they would sound something like this:

Your smile lights up any room you are in. Cliche, I know, but it is just the truth. There are moments where you grin, nonchalantly when no one is looking, that forms small dimples on the sides of your mouth and your eyes scrunch up on the end. These moments take my breath away.

Your manners are impeccable. Your mother raised you right. Now a days, you do not meet many men who know how to treat a lady, but you sure do. You hold doors, pick women up rather than meet them and you prefer to talk on the phone or in person rather than text.

You have a wonderful sense of humor. There are times when your jokes may be a tad bit far fetched, but you are funny nonetheless. I laugh at your jokes, but I mostly laugh at your small giggle that accompanies your jokes. You think you're funny which is a confidence I love.

You give the best hugs. You remind me of Olaf, the snowman from "Frozen," always giving the warmest hugs. Whether it is a hug for a sad or happy moment, your arms are always waiting wide open.

You are the sweetest person I have ever met. I wish you truly saw what I see in you. The way you care for others more than yourself, the way you are always there, your work ethic, you in general. I wish you knew how truly wonderful you are.

Often times, you talk down on yourself and you confide in me, wishing that you were more attractive or a better person. But if you only saw what I see in you, you would never feel down on yourself again. Of course, I am aware that it is quite impossible to see what others see and believe what others say about you, but for one moment believe that it is true. Believe that you are wonderful. Believe that you have a bright future ahead of you. Believe that you are always going to be one of the most attractive individuals in the room. Believe that your personality is a dime a dozen. Believe that you are perfect just the way you are.

These words well up inside my head, refusing to overstep my boundaries. But if you had one day to see yourself through my eyes, I think you would fall as in love with yourself as I am with you.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
