Simple Confession to a Friend

With the dawn of each new day
I realize this more and more
There is something I need to say
That I never really could before

Not because I didn't want too
Just chose to keep it inside
So now I confess to you
For with you I now confide

I count each second precious
As if it were my very last
Just to be in your beautiful presence
Even though the time goes very fast

I could go on about your smile
But there is more to you I know
There's also beauty in your eyes
You make the world around you glow

Even on the darkest day
When storms are at their worst
Just the very sight of you-drives the storm clouds away
So, with my sadness completely reversed

There's calmness in your voice
That puts my soul at rest
With your laughter bringing me joy
And your happiness leaving me refreshed

So, there is no other way to say
With all my heart I have to confess
This message I'm going to convey
Everything about you I seem to obsess
