We

He looks right at me,
And sees right through,
There are just so many things
I wish he knew,

How every time I see him smile,
I’m at peace,
And everything I do for him
Is all worth while,

How his words set me on fire,
And bring me to the peak of happiness,
Even a word like “I Love You”
Bring me to eternal bliss.

How seeing his face,
Gives me the shivers,
Or how when he hurts me
I cry no less then rivers.

How no one can take,
His place in my heart.
How just thinking of him,
Gives me light in the dark.

And how no matter what happens,
No matter how close we may be,
The I and you
Can never be a “We”
