Things I Wish I'd Said Before You Left

i. You make me melt. You make my heart stop and then start again. You make my stomach do roller coasters and flips and turns when I see you. Please don't make those feelings end. I need you.

ii. I meant it every time I told you I loved you, from the first time to the very last time. You were my diamond in a pile of pearls and I will always choose you.

iii. Life will be hard. People will be fake. You may have no one at some points of your journey, but you'll always have me, baby. You'll always have me to talk to. Please don't shut me out when you're down.

iv. You're the only boy I see. I could spot your piercing blue eyes from an ocean of blue-eyed boys because yours are the prettiest and bluest. I could spot your wavy blonde hair from all of the boys from L.A. because of the swoopy curl at the front. You're the only boy I see and I wish I was the only girl.

v. I want the best for you, and I want you to do your best even if it isn't 100 percent. Work hard for your dreams, make your grades higher than the sky, and make yourself a better person. I believe in you, babe.

vi. I want to make love to you, despite what I've been telling others. I want to hold you close and play with your hair and be intimate with you because you're the one. I would give myself to you and expect the same in return. Let me love you fully.

vii. Please never leave me. I know you promised this many times before but it's hard to believe coming from your lips. I know you've been left before and it hurt you so you wouldn't do it again, especially not to me, right? I hope so, because I imagine a future with you — an apartment that grows into a home, babies that grow into adults, love that grows into a galaxy of adoration. Don't leave. How will I learn how to love?
