Love's Confession

Love’s Confession

I confess, I’ve loved you all of my life
And I confess you’re too good to be my wife
I also confess, I think of you all day
And I suppose you know the words I want to say

Guilty as charged my eyes never wander
Weak as can be. You protect me from thunder
The first time we spoke I couldn’t fool you
Read me like a book, cos that’s what you do

I admit, I’m a child sometimes five years old
Though I’d cut off my skin for you if you're cold
I trust you with my most vulnerable thoughts and fears
Yet you are still a mystery after all of these years

I’m mentally weak, my hearts on my sleeve
But whatever I do, you encourage and believe
