You like me for the me that doesn’t make your coffee strong enough the me that always seems to make you late the me that almost burns a batch of cookies the me that can't park straight to save my life the me that absolutely hates being tickled the me that takes some comments a little too sensitively the me that keeps you up too late and makes you lose sleep the me that never fully succeeds at using chopsticks the me that takes a lifetime to decide what to eat the me that insists you must trim your mustache the me that needs your shoulder to cry on the me that worries this “me” is too needy
And somehow you can put your hands right on my deepest insecurities Exposing my vulnerabilities while covering me gently with love Because I know I’m safe in your arms and you make me want to believe the sweet words you say.
