My Love

My love The reason I wake up in the morning The reason I sleep through the nights The one who can brighten my day With a simple glance The feeling I can not explain The one some say is love The feeling I get when you walk by Makes me long for something, for someone, for you Many other long for you I am not the only one Some like you for your beauty I happen to disagree Of course, your eyes sparkle like the finest jewels and your smile is so bright that some mistake it for the sun But that is not why I love you Not why, my love It has kept me up at night trying to find someone to compare you to, but I can't Because you are unique Because you are everything Because you are you If I had to choose one word to describe you.......I wouldn't Because I could never pick one Never one, my love One could compare you to a flower bud Already beautiful Already reached full potential But still young Still young, my love But you do not need a gardener to protect you You do not need a tender to clip your leaves, when they will just grow back bigger and stronger than before You are untamed You are wild So do not let anyone hold you back Hold you back, my love I have heard people say that nothing is perfect But I know that they are wrong Because I have seen you You, and only you, my love When you are gone the clouds cry And the sun frowns The flowers wilt And the darkness overcomes Do not let it overcome Overcome, my love It seems as if your heart is made of rubies, Too strong to break And too beautiful to try So you stay untouched Untouched, my love You have the Midas touch But you do not need to use it on me Because I worship you And I will forever Forever, my love
