My Love

My love



The reason I wake up in the morning 
The reason I sleep through the nights
The one who can brighten my day
With a simple glance
The feeling I can not explain
The one some say is love
The feeling I get when you walk by
Makes me long for something, for someone, for you 
Many other long for you
I am not the only one
Some like you for your beauty
I happen to disagree 
Of course, your eyes sparkle like the finest jewels and your smile is so bright that some mistake it for the sun
But that is not why I love you
Not why, my love
It has kept me up at night trying to find someone to compare you to, but I can't 
Because you are unique 
Because you are everything 
Because you are you 
If I had to choose one word to describe you.......I wouldn't 
Because I could never pick one
Never one, my love
One could compare you to a flower bud
Already beautiful 
Already reached full potential 
But still young
Still young, my love
But you do not need a gardener to protect you 
You do not need a tender to clip your leaves, when they will just grow back bigger and stronger than before
You are untamed
You are wild 
So do not let anyone hold you back
Hold you back, my love 
I have heard people say that nothing is perfect 
But I know that they are wrong
Because I have seen you
You, and only you, my love
When you are gone the clouds cry
And the sun frowns
The flowers wilt
And the darkness overcomes 
Do not let it overcome
Overcome, my love 
It seems as if your heart is made of rubies,
Too strong to break 
And too beautiful to try 
So you stay untouched 
Untouched, my love 
You have the Midas touch 
But you do not need to use it on me 
Because I worship you 
And I will forever
Forever, my love
