Little do they know
Love is not something expressed under the covers
But it is patience, tolerance and most of all
Loyalty.

You can carve a million holes into this bark
But nothing will subside my spark
For you

I'm coping with the void
Hoping to avoid
All the issues everyone else had
You make me more than glad
To be alive

Everyone is so quick to drop the baskets
I'm ready to put these stipulations in the casket
Vulnerability within me is apparent and I'm not going to mask it
I want something that's porcelain, not plastic

That thrill of seeing your beautiful eyes twinkle is fantastic.

When they tell me to let you go, I'll shake my head and continue.

Nothing worth having in life is easy.

I want to earn your courtship.

That's something I'll take pride in forever.
