he loves me to pieces
he reminds me every single day
I'm far from perfect
i wont ever pretend i am
but when i put my heart unprotected into your hands
that's how i feel
like even though I had to give you myself in shards
you glued my pieces back together
in just the right way to make me
perfect

i cant sleep
not with you on my mind
not with you on my lips
not with with you in my heart
because all i want to do is be in your arms

im obsessed with the way your head is resting on my lap
the fact that you truly love the things i hate about myself
and no one sees my insecurity like you
but every single one you tell me isn't true

I'm obsessed with the way you stop me from over thinking all the little things
the fact that you don't think I'm worthless when I'm a wreck
and no one sees the way i over stress myself like you
but every little weight you take off my shoulders makes me feel over blessed

I'm obsessed with the way you understand me even when i don't know the right words to say
the fact that you cant sit still for even an hour makes my head spin
and no one keeps me on my toes the way you do
but every little glances is an electric shock of love like I'm a little kid again

I'm obsessed with the way you feel like home when I'm in your arms
the fact that you are so worth the wait of every single heartbreak
and no one sees the way your smile brings me up on my worst days
but every single one pulls me from the tears that sting my eyes

I'm obsessed with the way us is enough for the rest of my life
the fact that you know how comforting every little piece of you is
and no one sees the way i hold that ring when i need to stay strong
but every time i worry about you not wanting me to have some of your things you tell me its cute that I want you so close

i am broken
i am shattered into a thousand pieces
i am nothing but shards
and yet i lay every **** piece
down at your feet
they've always been yours
and they will always be
take the ones you want leave what you don't
rebuild me into what you need
and i will make you smile
every single day

i was waiting for the day you said you want me
because in my heart i felt a pull
one that I've never felt before
but watching you with others almost broke me down
i wasn't alone so i guess i understand
but now we throw our hearts into the flames
we love each other on days like these
if your wondering if i still love you
even when we are apart
here's what i would say
"i want you more and more each day
i love you in every way
i love this life we have
and i don't want to ever let you go"

you need not look to far
for if you have ever even the slightest question
you needn't wait for an answer
for all you shall ever need to do is
glance to the vastness of the sky
you need only glance the multitude of the stars
to know the infinite depths of our love

how does one ever recover from this?
i don't think i ever can
perhaps i don't want to
perhaps its easier not to
don't judge me though
we all carry our own baggage
some just carry it more inwardly
