I wish that I could write a song for you
And set my love to music.
Or Perhaps a sonnet is the way
To tell you how much I need you.

But the truth is I could never find
The right words to convey my thoughts.

How could I possibly put into words
How much I love the way you smell,
The way I love to nuzzle my face into your neck
To breathe you in deeper.
Or how much I miss your scent
When we’re apart.
Sometimes I can smell you
Even when you’re nowhere near me,
And though I know you’re not really there,
I still look around every corner.

And no song could accurately describe
The way it feels when you kiss me.
No combination of notes and melodies
Could represent how it feels
When I completely lose myself in your embrace,
When time stands still,
And all I’m aware of is you,
And your mouth,
And me and mine.

And all I want
Is to fall asleep next to you,
Snuggled close,
Wrapped in your arms.
Awakened by a cuddle
And a kiss,
Seeing your face
In the early morning sun.

Sometimes I get scared
That maybe we can’t make it,
But then I think of you and I realize
How hard I would work to stay with you
And make everything right
And we could spend our lives together.

All I want is to make you happy
And see you smile at me.
I want to spend my life
Telling you jokes,
Making you laugh
Until your eyes water.

All I’m trying to say
Is that I love you very much.
I don’t ever want to lose you
Or give you up.
I don’t know if I can handle
Seeing you with someone else.
I need you in my life
So please don’t ever leave.

Even this, these words
Are not all that is in my heart,
But I can’t find the right words,
The phrases that speak them aloud.
This is the best I can do
With letters and words,
And it’s all for you
My friend,
My dear,
My love.
