1<\/p>\n
Heart like a grenade<\/p>\n
Around you I’m liable to explode<\/p>\n
Boom<\/p>\n
There I go<\/p>\n
Smashed into pieces<\/p>\n
2<\/p>\n
Your spirit animal should be a bulldog<\/p>\n
Stubborn.<\/p>\n
Pigheaded.<\/p>\n
But lovable and sweet.<\/p>\n
Like hugging a brick wall wrapped in cotton<\/p>\n
3)<\/p>\n
Strong. You are so strong.<\/p>\n
Yet there is this tender soul under it all.<\/p>\n
You let me in.<\/p>\n
I let you in.<\/p>\n
We are have intertwined. There will be no separating us now.<\/p>\n
4)<\/p>\n
You saved my life.<\/p>\n
There was no point before there was you.<\/p>\n
There would be no point after you.<\/p>\n
5)<\/p>\n
Your eyes burn golden in the afterglow<\/p>\n
I love to watch them burn<\/p>\n
Like I light you on fire from the inside out.<\/p>\n
I wonder if my eyes burn blue at you.<\/p>\n
I’m burning inside too.<\/p>\n
6)<\/p>\n
Gear everywhere<\/p>\n
Gear and trash<\/p>\n
Helmets and boots<\/p>\n
Flashlights and scanners.<\/p>\n
3am firecalls.<\/p>\n
You steal my damn flip flops again<\/p>\n
Smoke and sweat smell in my car for days.<\/p>\n
7)<\/p>\n
You have no idea that your worth is more than your father taught you.<\/p>\n
You are digging your own hole of your insecurities under a blanket of his neglect and lies.<\/p>\n
We could all drown in those lies.<\/p>\n
8)<\/p>\n
You love to be obnoxious and drive me crazy.<\/p>\n
I put up a fight.<\/p>\n
But I really love it because you only do it cause you love my reactions to things.<\/p>\n
9)<\/p>\n
You make me feel safe.<\/p>\n
Like no one else.<\/p>\n
Home.<\/p>\n
10)<\/p>\n
We walk hand in hand together.<\/p>\n
There is no where else I would rather be than with you.<\/p>\n
Love has taken me to you.<\/p>\n
Forever.<\/p>\n
