Return Of Love

From the moment we first met
you began pulling my heart away 
Just that text or call from you 
Immediately brightens up my day 

I catch myself look at your picture 
Your beauty still makes me smile 
I know i'm going to fall in love with you 
To say otherwise would only be denial 

When you tell me of your struggles 
It makes my heart hurts for you 
If I can make your life better 
Please tell me what I need to do 

From making you coffee in the morning 
To the dinner I prepare at night 
And everything that's in between 
The smile you give me is a delight 

We're still getting to know each other 
But I'm wrapped around your finger 
Reminding me of an old emotion 
The remembrance of love does linger 

That four letter word I've sworn 
That I was never going to say 
I removed it from my vocabulary 
But It was returned on this day

This is nothing I want to rush 
But I believe I found happiness 
You being in my life has made
My heart overflow with bliss
