I loved you before I knew you.
I don't know how it's possible
but I know it is true.
You are the part of me I've always known was there
but couldn't find.
You are the sun that lights my world and fills me with warmth,
and the moon that gently lulls me to sleep at night.
Your eyes are the stars in the heavens,
shining down on me with unspoken love
while I look into them and wonder
is it possible to love this much?
I feel for you something I've always known
and yet continued searching for:
true, everlasting love.
Something different
and better
and stronger
than I've ever felt for anybody else.
The thought of you holding me makes my world worthwhile,
makes me fill with a gladness I can't experience anywhere else on Earth.
To see you depressed turns my world upside-down.
I want nothing more than to make your pain and suffering go away,
to whisper in your ear that everything will be okay
and have you believe me.
I want you to look in my eyes
and tell me you love me too,
to say we can always be together
and that having each other is enough.
I want to curl up on the couch together,
hold each other close,
whisper sweet words,
and love you for the rest of my life.
I want to spend eternity wrapped in your embrace,
with your tender kisses on my lips
and your hands gently caressing my skin.
I love you now,
and I always will.
