Instantly

An orange headband and black rimmed glasses

A Hello Kitty! sweater

I thought you're cute immediately

 

And also, when we matched you said you were fat!

In person I saw that your body is glorious

You said you wrote that to weed out the jerks

 

I realized there's no seating at the hot donut shop

We got our taro donuts and coffees anyway

"Let's go get lost in the city!"

You agreed

You said you love to be adventurous

 

We went hoofing around

For hours

We talked about everything

Good, bad, and ugly in our lives


I knew I liked you

And everything about you

You were somebody I admired

Someone that I wanted to be with

Someone that deserves to be treated well

 

I knew I wanted to be with you

When you mentioned Oaxaca heritage

And it's then that I looked deep into you

I saw so far into your deep brown eyes

And I saw the perfect tint on your skin

I wanted to kiss you all over

I wanted to make you feel good with my body, mind, and soul

 

I liked you as a person too:

Loving, Not Racist, Lots of Respect For Others

Desire for equality, funny, great laugh

You made me question everything I've ever done until that moment

And I realize it's never enough

It'll never be enough

I have to do much more

To make up for how little I feel I've done so far

 

I look up to you

You were my Dream

Come True

 

It's there, deep in the city, that I instantly fell in love with you

You made me want to make a better world, together

 

And that you happened to be exactly my type physically

Is just a wonderful luck of the draw

 

I'll never stop falling in love with you everyday

Because I'm aware how lucky I got

To share my heart with you.
