All The Things I Love About You I love you for the warm, sweet affection in your eyes whenever you look at me, and the special smile you save only for me. I love that you always seek to have your body close to mine, reaching out to touch, to hold my hand, to wrap your arms around me. I love how you show me you care by looking for ways to make my life easier and more comfortable. I love that when I ask you to do things, you try to do them instead of thinking me demanding. I love that your favorite place is near me, that you’d rather be with me than anywhere else. I love you for more reasons than this page has space to write, so I’ll try to tell you and show you in person all the things I love about you.
You Let Me Be Me
While others tell me I have faults and flaws,
And pick me all apart and criticize,
You love me, sweetheart, just the way I am;
I only see affection in your eyes.
My pesky quirks you only find endearing;
Your perfect mate is what you choose to see;
I love you for a multitude of reasons;
And most of all ’cause you let me be me.
I never have to change to meet your standards;
Acceptance is the greatest gift you give;
I appreciate you for your sweet devotion,
And I’ll love you for as long as we shall live.Until I Met You
Before I met you,
I thought I was happy,
and I was,
but I had never known
the rich contentment,
deep satisfaction,
and total fulfillment
you brought to me
when you came into my life.
Before I met you,
I felt a lot of things,
good things,
but I had never experienced
the indescribably intense
feelings I have for you.
Before I met you,
I thought I knew myself,
and I did,
but you looked deep inside me
and found fresh new things
for us to share.
Before I met you,
I thought I knew about love,
but I didn’t,
until I met you.Love Can Stay Strong
When love first comes and all seems right;
It’s beyond our reason that we two can fight.
Yet fights will come, and anger might thrive,
So let’s try to be sure that our love will survive.
Let’s make our plans with similar goals,
So our wants and desires won’t hit hidden shoals,
That set us crashing when things get hard,
So our love can stay strong even when it gets jarred.
For if love can stay strong when it’s tested by fire,
Then we’d share a future that most would admire,
A future where partners would strive side by side,
A future where love would always abide.Safe Within Our Love
How did this miracle happen
That we’re so very blessed,
So close…and more contented,
Than I ever would have guessed.
I never thought that I
Could spend each precious minute
With just one special person
And find happiness within it.
I’ve learned so much from you
About loving, sharing, giving;
I know if I hadn’t met you,
I wouldn’t be really living.
We’re facing life together;
We’re handling joy and sorrow;
I’m glad you’re on my side,
Whatever comes tomorrow.
You’re my perfect partner,
Sweet lover, trusted friend.
We’re safe within our love,
A love that will never end.
