Simple.
The difference between someone special and someone ordinary.
It's as simple as silence.
As simple as a walk.
An open book.
A smile.
Though the connotations behind each of these things are hardly ever simple.
Laughter.
There are many kinds.
It expresses joy, comfort, humor.
And it covers up embarrasment, eases awkward situations.
It's not about where we are going.
Or what we need to do.
The simple fact that we are together is good enough for me.
And no matter how ordinary our surroundings, I will always see something beautiful.
Something that I wouldn't have wanted to share with anyone else.
A tiny detail I would've otherwise missed.
I'd feel safe, knowing that a special person would never think I was insane.
Or worse, simply not understand at all.
A lonely, encroaching silence turns into a companionable one.
A smile lights up the mood in greeting.
A walk to a destination becomes one undertaken for its own sake.
Luckily, we don't need music or questions to keep the conversation going.
It really doesn't matter what we say either.
Most things are said without words anyway.
Besides, I understand what your feelings before you uttered a single word.
Though the words themselves may confuse me sometimes.
Agree to disagree.
It's not always rainbows and butterflies.
It's compromise that moves us along [yeaaah]
Knowing you can talk to me anytime.
But I'm tangenting from the topic again.
Though like our conversations, there usually isn't a topic at all.
Anything from politics to gardening methods go well.
Like anything else, it doesn't matter what we talk about.
A touch of reassurance, to let me know you are still there.
I think recognitions has moved beyond just mutual moral support.
But reassurance comes in many forms, and this is just one.
Simple words are also equally appreciated.
Listening to my admiration of a band you've never heard of before.
Smiling along, joining the excitement in hopes of catching it.
Most of the time you don't, but never mind that.
Convinced that I'd do the same on other occasions, roles inverted.
Since tender words are often mispronounced.
And more often still, misunderstood for something it's not.
I've written here, things I find beautiful in its simplicity.
How, above all, simplicity can make life so beautiful.
So here's a list of some of the things that makes up someone special.
And here's to you, to all the ones who make everyday shine.
