How He Knew

How He Knew

He knew he loved her by the way her smile lit up his world.
He knew by the way her voice stirred his soul.
He knew by the way he lost himself, searching her eyes like a mystery.
He knew by the way he missed her after parting for a moment.
He knew by the way he talked to her whether she was there or not.
He knew by the way he began to live for her.
He knew by the way his heart fluttered when he thought of her, catching his breath in his chest.
He knew by the way he wanted to kiss her and hold her close.
He knew by the way he desperately needed to learn everything about her.
He knew by the way the world seemed so perfect after they met…
How his life revolves completely around her…
How her happiness is the only thing that really matters…
How her tears rip his spirit into pieces…
How her dreams are the goals to his life’s work…
How she taught him more about himself than he had ever known before…
But the clue that gave it all away, was how his heart ached to see her go, but smiled for her as she loved another…
And he keeps on loving her.
