I can feel how much
You love me tonight
It seeps out of you
Every fiber of your being

Every word that escapes your lips
Hell
Even the way you look at me in game
I can't even see your face but I know

The way we interact
Our personalities intertwine
The moments we share
The discussions we have

I hear it in your voice
I feel it in the pit of my stomach
The things you say
Hit me like a truck

This overwhelming feeling
Of knowing how much you love me
Pushing every fear I used to have aside
You're everything I've ever wanted

No label no nothing
But I know you're mine
And it took me so long to realize
But I'm so fucking special to you

I used to get upset
When I couldn't game with you
While I was still at work
And you were playing with others

I'd get scared you'd forget about me
Leave me for them
Just like all the others
Have done my whole life

But when I started that new medicine
And I stayed up for over 48 hours
With the worst insomnia of my life
And you stayed up all night with me

It was that day I figured it out
And I'm not sure if it's the drugs
Of it simply clicked in my brain
But everything's changed since then

I no longer fear you don't love me
I no longer get upset about no label
I no longer worry you'll leave
I no longer think I'm not special to you

You and I know
We both know
You're as in love with me
As I am with you

July is when we really got close
August is when I knew I loved you
September is when I worried
October is when I knew

And now that I stay awake as late as you
We stay up and game all night
While the sun rises for you
And all is dark for me

It's in these late hours
When we're all alone
That we bond the most
That we love the hardest

While no one watches
We get closer and closer
And I know
And you know

I should've known I was special
When I was the first to hear your voice
I cracked your shell
Everyone was jealous

They never knew like we did tho
They never saw how we talked
How we clicked from the start
How I messaged you constantly

They didn't see my love develop
Quite like we did
Of course everyone knows I love you
They know we're special to each other

But I don't think they really understand
That we are each other's
That we're in love
That we have some so beautiful

And it's all thanks to a streamer in Canada
All happened by chance
I never thought I'd gain you
When I jokingly asked to marry her

And then I gained 4 close friends
And I gained a wonderful, beautiful,
Majestic, smart,
kind, and compassionate lover

Someone who jokes like me
Someone who endlessly compliments me
Someone who has more faith in me
Than I have in myself

You've given me something
I've so desperately needed
As my previous relationship failed
I was so scared I'd have no one

And I prayed that God
Would give me someone
And instead of one
I got four

And instead of being lonely
I got you
And instead of a label
I got an unquestioning love

I've gained something so beautiful
Something I've never had before
Something so real
It goes beyond a label

Because we love so hard
That there's no label required
We call each other wives
We love each other endlessly

Everyone looks and watches
And they know
But they'll never understand the depth
Of this love with no labels

I've always asked
For someone who would love me
As passionately as my parents
Love each other

It's you
From the moment we met
Passionate and kind
Nothing but loving

And it's only grown
It's only gotten better
You think I'm out of your league
And I think I'm out of yours

I don't deserve you
And yet here you are
Endlessly telling me the same
Endlessly loving me

And even without the label
I know you're the one
You'll be by my side
For a long long time

I've always heard
Your soulmate doesn't have to be
The one you get married to
And now I know it's true

With you I feel content
Just a wave of peace
Knowing I won't be alone again
You'll always be there

But if I marry anyone
It'll be you
Because you and I
Don't want anyone else

So perfectly content
Just here together
In the late hours of the night
With all the love for each other
