Love You

Today my thoughts are about you 
And the last two years we’ve spent paired 
Wondering if our love is true 
Pushing, testing, you I have dared 

Thus causing you to misconstrue
And question the love I’ve declared
Unfair, at times mistreating you

When all the while my love was strong
But so afraid to show weakness
To commit and say how I long
To be with you and taste your kiss

Upon my lips, in arms so strong
Where I feel such unending bliss
And nothing can ever be wrong

You are the man I want for life
For the past two years I’ve been sure
That one day I’ll become your wife
Affirm my love for you so pure

We take the happiness and strife
Accept them both as they occur
And move forward in our life (secure)
