Ten Things I Love About You by Angie
I heard about this challenge. It was to write ten things you love about your lover. I almost laughed. There was no way I could write only ten things about you, Darren. I wondered if I could put down "everything". I wished I could put your smell, touch, hair, eyes, neck, mouth, tongue, oh Darren how the list could go on. I wish they'd let me name every part of your beautiful body and every eccentric little quirk in your personality. But the rules were to write ten things. So I did.
10. The way you backseat drive, but make up for it by kissing me after we argue over it.
9. The way you throw tantrums about not getting enough love some nights, and then let me lay you down and make long-lasting sweet love to you until night turns to day.
8. Your lips. Period.
7. The way you laugh at me, so sweetly, so innocent and then you ask me to forgive you.
6. The way you say "I love you". It's enough to drive me mad.
5. I love how every morning you lay asleep and I watch you breath. You look like an angel.
4. The way you fell into my life.
3. The way you never lie to me. Ever. Sometimes the truth can hurt, and sometimes it can help.
2. The way you sing, and stare into my eyes as you do.
1. The way you call my name, when you fall to Earth. Every ounce of your being falling, crashing, slamming into me as you cry out in pleasure and pain, "Daniel". You say my name as if it's the only word you know.
And those, Darren Hayes, are the ten things I love about you.
