I’m looking at the old couple, driving next door,
And I already know that’s us, we’re going to last.

Still, I’m trying not to fall too hard, too fast.
But I’ve already bungee jumped off the skyscraper,
I’m hopin’ this cord ain’t too long,
That you’ll stop me before rock bottom.

Even though I’m fightin it, trying to take it slow,
Like the beautiful moon, every night I seem to fall for you.
You’re even more radiant and gorgeous you know,
I tell you every day so,
Even more in love with me you’ll be.

I love you, mi amo, never leave me,
I’m never going to hurt you, never desert you,
I’ll be there, in hunger and thirst, you,
Are the best thing in my life, now and forever,
Be mine ain’t no valentine,
Its my wish upon a star for you.

Every day is the very start, of
A whole new day of lovin’ you.
Forget me tonight, remember me tomorrow.
I’ll always and forever love you.

These words are inadequate,
For how you make me feel,
My heart bumps and thumps whenever it wants to,
For you I have no control.

I’m trying so **** hard not to scare you,
To push you away or force you.
Because I need and breathe you’re essence, you’re life.
You’re my oxygen filling my lungs,
Every word I speak, its you on my tongue.

This poem ain’t good enough for you.
You’re better than the best.
It can never match you’re smile or you’re embrace.
But if it can make you laugh, or cry for joy,
Then it’ll be worth it, cuz all I want
If for you to be happy with me.
