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.
