True Love

A beautiful love, you stole my heart;
Memories from the past, try to tear us apart.
Our love that is strong, lasting and true;
The way I get butterflies, just seeing you.

That someone that holds the key to my heart;
I knew that I loved you, straight from the start.
That amazing guy that sat next to me on the bus;
Never imagining there would ever be an "us."

A poem is the only way my feelings can show;
To make you realize, for you to know.
You make me smile, laugh and sometimes cry;
How you make me feel, I can't explain why.

My soulmate and true best friend;
Saying you will always be here in the end.
No one else makes me happy the way you do;
The person I want, will forever be you.

Babe we both worry and it starts a fight;
But you are the one I want next to me at night.
Trusting is hard to do, I think we both know that;
But look what we have been through, got us where we're at.

Breaking me down, something I can't bare;
The way you make me feel, when you act like you don't care.
Losing you is never the easiest way;
I don't want to argue, but what can I say.

This last thing I write, I hope it breaks through;
My one and only love, that I want and need is you.
