MY LOVE

The first time I saw you
You looked so beautiful
Your eyes were wonderful
Like the diamonds that I drew

Every time I see you
My heart softens
My day brightens
My eyes stop blinking
And my blood stops flowing

You are the sunshine of my heart
Even during times that are hard
You are always by my side
Even in the worst fights

A person may like to ask
Why I like to bask
In the sun and think
About your first wink

I‘ve got a puzzle in my heart
That you and you alone can fix
And whenever my heart picks
Your memory always sticks

Among the twenty-six alphabets
I would not hesitate to bet
That all in this crew
What matters is I and u

My life without you
Is like a nerd without braces
A shoe without laces
And a sentence without spaces
It is meaningless

You are the apple of my eye
The blue of my sky
The green of my grass
And the sparkle of my glass

You are the source of my joy
For you must know it’s not a ploy
For wherever you may be
Know that you’ll always be
My love
