because i love you

I worry that all we will be
Is intimacy
I worry that all you want
Is physicality
But I know I am wrong
But I am still afraid
Because you did not say
I love you
Lightly
You say it with meaning
And that is playing a tune
In my vacant heart
Your love
You appreciation
Your honesty
Your loyalty
Plucks a heartwarming tune

For years and years
I have hated and loathed
The word perfect
It has been a disgusting burden
Full of lies
But when he says it
Its beautiful
Reborn
"In my eyes, you are perfect"
This time, I felt it
Perfect
A word full of butterflies instead of lies
