He Will Know You
One day, he's going to know you. He'll know your birthday, your middle name, your star sign, and your parents names. He'll know how old you were when you learned to ride a bike, how your grandparents passed away, how many pets you've had, and how much you hated going to school. He'll know your eye color, your scars, your freckles, your laugh lines and birthmarks. He'll know your favorite movie, candy book, pair of shoes, song, and color. He's going to know why you're awake at 3am most nights, where you were when you realized you lost a good friend, why you picked up the razor blade and how you managed to put it down before things went too far. He's going to know your phobias, your dreams, your insecurities, your wishes, and your worries. He's going to know about your first heartbreak, your dream wedding, and your problems with your parents. He'll know your strengths, weaknesses, laziness, energy, and your mixed emotions. He's going to know about your love for mayonnaise, your dream of being famous when you were five, your need to quote any film you know all the way through, and your fear of growing older. He'll know your ad habits, your mannerisms, your stroppy pout, your facial expressions, and your laugh like it's his favorite song. The way you talk, chew, drink, sleep, fidget, and kiss. He's going to know you already picked out wedding flowers, baby names, tiles for bathroom floors, bridesmaid dresses, and the color of your bedroom walls in your first house together. He's going to get annoyed and then accept that you leave clothes everywhere, take twenty minutes to order Starbucks, have to organize your DVD's and CD's alphabetically, and check both of your horoscopes. He'll know your McDonald's order, how many sugars to put in your tea, how many scoops of ice cream you want, and that you need your sandwiches cut into triangles. He's going to know how you feel without you telling him, and that you're crying before you shed a tear. He's going to know all of it. Everything. You from the top to bottom and inside out. From learning, watching, listening, and sharing. He's going to know every single thing there is to know, and you know what else? He's still going to love you.
