title : you're my everything
first thought in the morning,
and last before i sleep
when i say i love you,
it's a promise i intend to keep

you're all i seem to think about,
the only thing on my mind
definitely one in a million,
truly something special to find

your love’s built like a drug,
my new favourite addiction
my prince charming and knight in shining armour,
a true fairytale depiction

my own voice of reason,
the cause behind my smile
my lover, my bestfriend,
you make life worthwhile

staying up late night watching hours pass by,
thinking of you
can't sleep with you on my mind,
dreams mean nothing when reality's true

i wish i was with you,
cause that's what i'm missing
holding hands, hugging you,
being in your arms and kissing

staying away from you
and even not talking for a day drives me insane
a huge part in my life,
there aren't enough words to explain

love's only let me down,
never giving me a real definition
but you're like my favourite song,
in our own little rendition

i feel like a kid in a candy store
for the very first time
big eyes, huge smile,
can't believe that you're really mine

you're the missing piece of the puzzle
that make my life complete
the only person who has the capability
to make my heart skip a beat

there's no words that can perfectly
describe how you're simply amazing
flattering me, making me blush,
always constantly praising

but the fact of the matter,
getting down to the bottom line
i love you. i mean it. xxvi
