the thought of love

I thought I knew what love was 

I thought I would feel it from the first girl I kissed

That my heart would skip a beat

When our lips first locked together

Who knew that lust mimicked the thought of love?

I thought I knew what love was

I thought I would feel it from the first person

Whoever said those words to me

The thought of love isn’t simply hearing

Those words being uttered in vein

Love is in the way my stomach is filled

By butterflies every time I get a chance to see you smile

It’s in the way your laughter feels like a melody

That forever plays in the depths of my heart

It’s in the way I feel every time I hear your name

That sensation I feel whenever you’re in my arms

I always feel that stands still in awe of the perfection that is between you and me

The thought of love is forever embedded in my mind

Every single moment we share a kiss

That feeling that the heavens are cheering

At the sight of two souls that are rooted in the thought of love

The thought of love to me is the look in your eyes whenever I gave in them

The endless splendour that reveals how much I mean to you

It’s in the way your voice echoes in my mind

When you call my name just to tell me you love me

The thought of love is you and me together for infinity

Or as long as the heavens will permit
