Adore

Adore /uh-dawr/ --verb
to regard with the
utmost esteem, love, and respect; honour; to like or admire very much.
I adore the smell of coffee and the way it
taste. How a cup of coffee is enough to wake me up but I still need the
second cup to make me functional and bearable. How a cup of coffee before sleep
soothe me instead of rouse me.
I adore the bookstore, the way it makes me feel
content. I can gaze away in front of row and row of books and never get bored.
The smell of new and old books, different yet still beloved.
I adore the rain. How they feel when they fell
upon me. How they settle my emotion into a calming breeze instead of a raging
storm. How they makes me smile even on the darkest hour of my life. How they
accompany me through life.
I adore my parents, and the way that they love
me enough to let me go but still opening their house for me to come home. How
they work so hard to make sure I got everything that I need and want but still
teaching me how to be humble and down to earth.
I adore the smell and the sight of sea. The way
their waves always comes back home, in a soothing, constant motions of gives
and takes.
I adore being up in the sky. To see the cloud
rolls and moves below me. To know that others still goes on with their daily
activities. To know that I am small enough, high enough to see the smallest
squares of earth, and see into the horizon, pretending it was the end of the
earth, and hoping that someday, maybe, I will visit it.
(And I adore you. How your smile lighten me. How
your hug calm me. How your words soothe me. How your eyes see right through me.
How you know me well enough to give me what I need.)
