I Am, Because of Her

She does not know just what she does
The effect she has, the rising love
She needn’t not even look at me
To make me feel complete

She holds the power in her heart
Giving each day a brand new start
She doesn’t need to say the words
That make me feel her heat

I am, because of her, will be, too
Filled with a love, forever true
I see, in her, my very future
And have it no other way.

Without a word I know she feels
A love so strong, a love so real.
Because of her I’m thankful
For emotion each new day.
