Playing video games with you
Is even more fun than traveling to a fancy location
Tasting elegant wines and sampling lavish lifestyles
Partly because I enjoy the little things with you
Playful exchanges as we battle within the game
Laughing as we try to mess the other up
These things were never felt before
The warmth in my chest when I’m with you
The butterflies in my stomach when I hear your voice
The security I feel when I think to myself
All of this is mine
Like with an expensive wine or champagne
I want to savor it.
This rare bond that everyone longs for
A lover
And a best friend
It’s hard to believe that with you,
Nothing can be as calming or as soothing
As feeling your heartbeat echoing through my being;
Spreading like a wildfire throughout my bloodstream.
Something so simple as playing video games
When it’s with you,
Is even more valuable than gold.
Partly because I enjoy your company
Because you make me feel things I’ve never felt before
Because you light up my darkness like the Eiffel Tower illuminates Paris
Or like the skyscrapers of New York City brighten the shadowy streets below.
The little things are what matter most
They are memories
I never want to let go.
