You Needed Me

You (knee)ded me

For so long, I felt 
so empty and all alone
but, you came along
and you (knee)ded me.
You touched me with
your love, you filled me up
from my head down to my toes
(my belly too, I might add
that was tasty, mmmmm)
My love is complete, 
strong and true,
my arms long to hold you
my fingers too.
I will declare my love to
all your family 
Your Aunt and Ankle too.
Just swear to me that you
love me, cause I (knee)d you too.
