I love you, despite my aching heart.
I love you, individually, intimately.
I love you, knowing you love me too.
I love you, even though I'm so afraid.
I love you, afraid of losing you.
I love you, your curly hair.
I love you, your perfect smile.
I love you, every single freckle.
I love you, your strong, gentle hands.
I love you, every emotion.
I love you, passionately, intellectually.
I love you, more than I can show.
I love you, more than I can say.
I love you, beyond the end of days.

I'm trying not to harden as you clasp my hand
I'm trying not to be the hardest stone upon the land
I'm trying not to cry when you kiss me
I'm trying not to break this stability
I'm trying to love like I've never before
I'm trying to be eternally yours
I'm trying to whisper instead of yell
I'm trying to hide my internal hell

Body touches body and
Exhales make great chase and
My fingers trace your parting lips
At everlast and evermore
You are my eternity
