When You Love Someone Poem by Christian Rivera

When you love someone, you're
constantly thinking of them.
Just seeing them brings
an irremovable smile to your face.
When you talk to the one you love,
your attention is nowhere else; not even
in the music you were listening to
a second ago. You turn it off.

You see beauty in everything
they are. From the way they walk,
to the sound of their voice
when they hum a melody. You envision
yourself with them, together,
doing absolutely nothing
but locking eyes.

When you love someone, you know
it's love and nothing else.
You can't explain why, or how you feel
so strongly for that person. You just
know it's in your destiny to follow them
until the end of time. No matter what
path taken, no matter what relationship
you two are in. You feel it written in
stone.
