To My Love

Shall I compare you to my driving test? 
Although you seemed to be the friendliest,
I was nervous when I had met you first. 
It felt awkward, like I was unrehearsed. 

I’d watched my mom and dad drive every day. 
I’d seen them always know the way.
It seemed so easy from the back seat.
I couldn’t wait to roll around the street. 

“Easier said than done” they’d say; it’s true,
But practicing taught me a thing or two. 
I felt so lost behind the leather wheel.
At last! I found control, it felt surreal. 

It meant a lot to get my license,
but my love for you is more immense.
With ease, I drive around,
Just like my love for you I found.
