Why?

Sometimes at night, when I look to the sky,
I start thinking of you, and then ask myself, why?
Why do I love you? I think and smile,
Because I know the list could run for miles.
The whisper of your voice, the warmth of your touch.
So many little things that make me love you so much.
The way you support me, and help with my emotions.
The way you care and show so much devotion.
The way your kiss fills me with desire,
and how you hold me with the warmth of a blazing fire.
The way your eyes shine when you look at me,
Lost with you forever, is where I want to be.
The way that I feel when you're by my side.
A sense of completion and overflowing pride.
The dreams that I dream, that all involve you.
The possibilities I see and the things we can do.
How you finish the puzzle that lies inside my heart.
How that deep in my soul, you are the most important part.
I could go on for days, telling of what I feel,
But all you really must know, is my love for you is real.
