can i count the ways?

oh, how i love thee... 
can i count the ways?

i love that when i look into your eyes, not only do i see the depth & sincerity
 of a soul of the most beautiful person i know, i see the perfect reflection of
 myself,

i love that when you lips touch mine, not only do they create a spark of
 electricity that courses through my body, they create a kiss of passion &
 perfection,

i love that when your body touches my body, not only does it fit perfectly
 together with mine in all ways, it forms the safe haven that i've longed for,

i love that your hand is always there when i reach for it,

i love that you always know what i'm thinking or exactly what to order off the
 menu for me,

i love that i don't feel the need to explain myself...you just get me,

i love that you're silly like me,

i love that your philosophy of life is also mine,

i love that you want me to be your best friend,

i love that not only do you think i'm beautiful, but that you tell me,

i love that you kiss me when i cry,

i love that you have faith in me,

i love that you can sweep me into your arms & kiss me, madly, in the middle of
 the bookstore & not even care who sees us,

i love that even when we're in the midst of a crowd, you still make me feel
 like the center of your world,

i love that you think we were born just for each other,

i love...that you love me!
