i thought

 Authors Note: I originally wrote this during my first relationship. These are feelings I did not share to my partner at the time. Being aromantic this peom means a lot to me and I continue to constantly rewrite this one, and copy it on new note books.

I thought I never understood the concept of love. 

A language I could never speak

a test i cannot read, even though I had studied my materials. 

I thought I would never be able to love someone ever. 

broken, not meant for the society I was raised and studied for. 

When I am with you; just being you. 

I feel like I do understand love and how to love. 

it something that comes with breathing to you. 

second nature. 

I do not feel this breathe, this nature. 

i crave to do so. crave to feel the way you can feel. 

i understand i love, 

and so i think i love you
