Languages of Love

I was in bliss
When you declared us official.
I was speechless
As our relationship went on for years.

I was in heaven
As we celebrated our anniversaries.
I was just as contented
Everytime you ran to me when you're lonely.

But suddenly,
You began to shy away.
I was thinking what did I do wrong
For you to step away.

Then, it dawned on me.
That you needed time to breath.
I was holding you back
When all you want to do is be free.

I didn't realize
I became too possessive.
I was happy you told me
Otherwise, I will take it the wrong way.

Your laughter and your touches
Were your love languages.
My rebuttals and constant nagging
Were mine.

As years go by,
We matured.
Our love became stronger
As it blossomed.

I will never get tired
Of seeing & spending time with you.
I will never get tired
Of your playful slaps & kisses so true.

Because every day I spend with you
Is a moment worth keeping.
