You

It's wrong of me to wonder
if you love me like you say

It's wrong of me to wonder
if you care as much as I

With every hug, 
With every kiss,
With every touch,
With every word,
You bring along my smile

You make me wonder if I matter,
But you tell me that I do
You make me question whether I'm worth it,
But you show me that I am

You're the reason I have grown
and the reason I have fallen
You're what makes me want to cry
But makes me smile instead

I yearn
For you.

Your voice,
Your touch, 
Your smile, 
Your entire being

You are my world
And you may not know it.
You are my world,
that I may hold in my hands. 

And I pray
that you do not slip away.

May our promise be kept.
