The People That I Like

the point i am trying to get across is that i love and adore people more than others do. perhaps "more" isn't the exactitude i was hoping for, maybe "deeper" or even "more thoroughly" is what i am trying to say. but i know this is true; i watch best friends and lovers, people with any connection interact, i listen how they talk to and about each other and it isn't the same. this isn't exactly about details, for anyone can pay attention to  and observe some one else. but like i said, adoring. this is about someone looking around my kitchen before they ask me where the clean cups go to dry, not simply asking to feel the moment of appreciation after they tell me that they washed their own mug. this is about feelings about someone's voice, and the look on their face when they think no one is looking at them. gestures, eye contact, volume, waiting for people to get out of the car, asking an hour later if their phone is working any better, follow-up, remembering.
