Sleeping Beauty

Love I wish I could tell how I feel but I'm better with actions more than words yet today I am just too far out of reach I should apologize but you already know I'm sorry so this is no time for sorrys but still I'm sorry I'm a little excited and I have no idea what to say I could start with a cliche like I am Earth and you are the Sun and I just can't help but orbit around you I'm not an artist, but I'm just drawn to you Cheesy and a terrible pick up line but hey can you blame me you make my brain lose thought and my heart skip a beat Love, you are my everything And I wish I could give you my eyes let you see yourself through my eyes for you to see how special you are to me for you to see the beauty in you I see Unlike these carbon clay cut outs you are beautiful from the inside out I act so sheepishly when I see you from afar I know you can tell for I know you see me duck behind a tree just so we can play a brief game of hide and seek my own symbolic way of saying you found me you found me from the darkest place I was trapped in I can't thank you enough I've never been so happy just staring within your smile just staring within your gateway to your soul your very warm soul Love, you are my everything If I could spend forever right here under the clouds right here under the stars on a checkered picnic blanket with your hand in mine your head resting on my shoulders I will be the luckiest duck in the world no matter how much I say I'm nothing no matter how much I say I'm just another ugly duckling Love, you are everything to me Love, you give me all the confidence in the world to be more than what I am Love, you are everything Love, I know you are asleep but I hope my message won't disturb you for you are my Sleeping Beauty and I your noble prince please dream softly until you awake with butterfly eyes to my gentle kiss, to my gentle words Love, I love you Love Love Love, will you marry me
