Can I tell you something?

You mean the world to me,

You're never off my mind,

I love you for everything you let me know,

And everything I'm yet to ask.

I love how you look when I speak,

How you hear the words I say,

How you think and then respond,

How you treat me like an equal.

I love how you joke with me,

You talk with, not to me,

You answer no matter how strange-

I ask a lot of strange-

I want to meet your family,

Want you to meet mine,

Want to see you eating dinner

In the seat right next to mine.

I want to hold,

Talk,

Listen to you.

I want to read,

Joke,

I want to be with you.

Because those three words,

The ones I'm scared to say,

They come to mind when I think of you,

Which is all and every day.


I want to love you.

I do.

I love you.

I want you to love me

I hope you do.

I want to do stuff-

But I want to do it

With you.
