That's When I Love You
Tonight, I am feeling extremely thankful for B. Not that I usually do not, but because I am in a complete sentimental and thanksgiving mood tonight, and these thoughts just flood my mind as I sit alone here in my room, thinking of all the nice things that I have been blessed with. And I can't help but pen them down - not for anyone, but purely for jotting down every monumental step along our journey to being one step closer, and for reminding him how much he means to me.
He is not the most talkative guy, neither is he a man with sweet words. But he takes the effort to convey concern in his own unique ways. Sometimes, over tea and cakes with my girlfriends, I would share with them how he nags at me for (almost) everything - my clothes, my shoe shopping, my messiness, my laziness, my procrastination, my whining about dance... yea, he looks too quiet for these right? But I know, I know it deep down that it is his way of caring for me. There are times when I do not agree with his words, and there are times when he does not allow me to do certain things and I would sulk, but most honestly, I am beyond comforted that he takes care of me in his own ways and he never fails to protect me - even when he is not physically by my side.
We are both alike for many things, yet so different in many ways. Nature made us differ vastly because Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. I have been learning everyday to embrace the gap between the two worlds, and I am always bettering myself to be worthy of his love. But as with everything else in the world, nothing is a bed of roses. We disagree, we fight, and we hurt each other. At the end of the day, my biggest comfort is knowing that he is still standing there - trying his best for me, and for us.
And because I am such a typical paranoid Venusian who has a tendency to over-think and activate the worrywart in me, he has to take the bigger step to assure me that everything is alright, and even if they are not, he will be there to hold my hands and walk with me.
To think I am always bullying him! He even feeds me water when I wake him up at night - just because I am too lazy to reach for the bottle. :')
B, I know I am so blessed to have you. And there are so many other women in your world, but you picked me. I know I am safe in your heart, and with you, all my fears are halved; with you, all my joys are doubled.
Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime.
Anywhere you go, let me go too;
Baby, that's all I ask of you.
