It's The Little Things.
I Was Living Like A Ghost, Then You Came Along.
It's the little things
that fill me with joy:
The love found
existing all around.
From the every day mundane,
to the ways you speak my name.
To all the times we've spent;
The places we went.
The nights spent in -
takeout and a movie.
Of course I'd fall asleep
right before it ends, as usual.
You see,
I've never really been one
for grand gestures
or big surprises.
No, the real prize is
these moments we spend together,
messing around like it'll last forever -
and maybe it will even when we're gone.
We'll have little snippets captured
to tell of our lives, our stories,
our greatest happiest moments -
and as simple as they may be,
they breathed life back into me.
