Today I told you I loved you.
I tried to be cool with it
And ease it into the conversation.
But those three words stuck out like a sore thumb:
I love you.
I wish I could say it again,
But I don’t want to overwhelm you.
I love you.
I can only hear those three words on repeat:
I love you.
Over and over.
I don’t really know what it means to love you,
But I know this.
I know that I think about you with every passing second,
I know that I always feel complete with you,
And I know that my day is never enough without you.
I love you.
I love you,
Every single piece,
I love you.
I love all your flaws,
In my eyes they create perfection.
I love your smile,
In my eyes they put heaven to shame.
I love your voice,
In my eyes symphonies could never compare.
I love you,
Every single part of you.
Can’t you see?
I care about you deeply,
I love you inevitably,
Is that wrong?
I confess that I love you,
And I don’t think I’ll ever stop.

And I know that my day is never enough without you.
I love you.
I love you,
Every single piece,
I love you.
I love all your flaws,

I love your smile,
In my eyes they put heaven to shame.

Every single part of you.
Can’t you see?
I care about you deeply,

I confess that I love you,
And I don’t think I’ll ever stop.
