I love you because
You make me smile
And I want to be with you
For more than just a while

I love you because
You make me nervous
You're so beautiful
I don't know if I deserve this

I love you because
You fill up my day
With thoughts of you
And time just slips away

I love you because
You are so cute
When you get embarrassed
About the silly things you do

I love you because
I know you care
You tell me how you feel
And encourage me to share

I love you because
You think I'm funny
Even though my jokes are lame
And usually pretty punny

I love you because
You are open to change
You try the things I show you
Even if they are a little strange

I love you because
Of the passion you display
I see your love for the things you do
And it motivates me every day

I love you because
I know you'll always be there
Although we're so far apart
I feel your presence everywhere

I love you because
You gave me a chance
And I can't wait  
To hold your  hands

I love you because
You are so playful
The laughter that you create
Makes me feel so grateful

I love you because
You want me to stay
And I hope
It always is that way

I love you because
The sight of you
Overwhelms me
So I don't know what to do

I love you because
You just be yourself
You're so perfect
How could I want anyone else

I love you because
You love me back
And I don't think there's anything
More important than that

Silence
This idleness is driving me insane
My life is in the hands of the pilots
As I wait in this plane

I'm weighed down by a fog like haze
As I drift through this cloud
My thoughts are trapped in a maze
And there's no way out

Suddenly I feel a strange sensation
I awake from the dreamlike state
My body is impatient
I can't stand to wait

There's something grabbing at my heart
Attracting me like a magnet
I want to jump into the dark
To satisfy the need for attachment

My soul leaves my body
I'm soaring through the sky
The raindrops wave to me
As I pass them by

I'm drawn to the feeling
Like a moth to a flame
My thirst for oneness is unyielding
As I take my aim

I see the peaks of mountains
And the raw power of rivers
I visit city fountains
But as I travel through the forest my soul quivers

You're there among the trees
The tugging on my being is stronger than ever
I come to you like a cool breeze
My soul meets your heart, we are finally together

I realize what love is
And I feel complete
But than everything changes
And I'm back in my seat

You looked at me, with those gentle
eyes,
On the balcony of that cold starry
night.
The hours ticked away, filled with our
laughs.
We hoped for longer but you had to go
back.
Ever since then we've talked, but who
knew,
That even though apart, the closer we
grew.
Your beautiful words of love fuel my
smiles,
And they make this long wait totally
worthwhile.
These 350 miles won't stand in our
way,
For I continue to love you, every single
day.
