The Things I Love About You

I love your smile.
It’s like light rain on a sunny day.
I love that way you carry yourself.
Like you own the whole entire world.
And know it to, but don’t really care.
So sure, so confident.
I love the way you wear the same striped blue sweatshirt almost everyday.
I don’t love you, though.
But I love the possibilities that you bring.
But the probability that those possibilities will happen is small.
I know I’ll probably never be with you.
I’m fine with that.
I’m fine with just watching you from the sidelines.
Watching you being so wonderful.
Your smile, your confidence, your striped blue sweatshirt.
I love these things.
But most of all, I love that I’ll never be with you.
That way, when I never am, I won’t be disappointed.
