πŸ’– How do I feel about her?

How do I feel about her, you ask?

Have you ever met someone

So supposedly, theoretically contradictory

And yet so actually harmonious?

An art form

Where traits you wouldn't think could exist together...

Do?

Shy, she seems, yet confident, playful and caring in her compassion yet flitting away with the exact same joy

From the moment we both felt coming, or that I hoped for.

Or did she?

I feel

As if one moment I think I'm leading her

The next I'm out of my depth

As she looks back and laughs

For me to catch up

She runs circles around me

And yet seems to think I'm amazing

I'm not sure how

For she certainly is

Her mind endlessly contemplating new possibilities, opening and creating worlds for me to explore or listening intently, somehow never bored

Always, she is engaged, animated, yet in some way relaxed

There's a deeper peace with her

That I feel

She's shy, yet playful, confident?

How can so much allure, uniqueness and empathy, so much knowledge and strangely carefree yet deeply empathic energy

Exist in one single such beautiful being?

I'm at risk of not knowing what to say!

And I certainly don't know how to tell her.
