Why can't it be me,
do you not see how perfect,
how everything you say,
how every move you make,
proves we are meant to be?

Why won't you open your eyes and see
just how beautiful you are to me,
I see a picture of the stars,
I think of you,
the ocean waves whisper your name,
I can't escape your ever-living grace.

I can't change how I feel,
my heart has been carved out
and stitched back together with
every word that you say,
your breath keeps me alive,
even though you are so far away.

*Please, we are meant to be.
Please, I want us to be.
