i grow under your touch

the way i feel

when you look at me

is a feeling unlike any other

authors have written about this

artists have painted about this

singers have sung about this

but i never quite knew

just how exquisite it is

to love and to be loved

until i fell for you

there's nothing i would rather do

than to sit and have a conversation with you

we could talk about everything in the world

or absolutely nothing at all

i always thought it was a cliche but it's true:

you make me want to be better

i want to be worthy of your love

i want to be the person you believe i am
