She glows when she sees me. She is full of life, and energy and laughter, whenever I’m around her. She loves me. This one thing I know. Her love checks all the boxes. It fits all the descriptions people tell me I’d see, and feel, when someone loves me.

     Today is our anniversary. She is as amazing as the first day I met her.

     I don’t have butterflies in my stomach, it is empty. My heart doesn’t skip a little when our bodies touch. I don’t melt inside in tranquility when she looks into my eyes. She is not the most beautiful woman on earth, and she doesn’t have eyes like no other. She doesn’t light up the room when she walks in. Still, she is beautiful, a joy to see.
