From the first moment
that I saw you
there was love for you
and from the beginning
you effervesce
was in my thoughts
and in every word and sentence.
I loved you
in so many ways
and sometimes
even when it did really hurt
and no reason remained
for love.
I saw you sleeping
next to me
and marvelled about
your dreams
and you were so pretty
while you laid there peacefully
that I just fell more
in love with you
and while you are away
sometimes I wonder
how it feels
for someone else to love you
and I tear my thoughts away
and see happy people
around me
and the answers that I get
at times
rips right through me
and still I stay
endlessly in love with you.
