Reasons for my Love

I Love you with every breath I take
and with every pint of blood that flows through my body.
I need you as the flowers need water,
 as the sick need our prayers,
and as the lost need hope.

I love to laugh with you,
and hear your laughter.
I enjoy blowing bubbles,coloring with you,
like becoming a child all over again.

I Love the way when I'm in your arms,
I'm comfortable and safe,
from my past, present, and future.

I love you for the way you never let life
bring you down, and the way you never
forget to dream.
The way you works so hard, relentlessly,
overcoming every obstacle.

For once my dreams and reality,
are one in the same...
I love you while both asleep and awake.

You are that special someone,
that made a special difference in my life,
one that awaited a long time to be made.

I could never see your pain before now,
for the interference of mine.
I would help you mend your broken heart,
if only you would let me.
You in return, could mend mine.

I love you for your forgiving nature,
and your generous acts of kindness.
I love you because you can see my heart,
as if it beats on the outside of my chest.

I watch you as you sleep at night,
as an astrologer gazes at the stars.
I love you because you are who you are,
and because I am who I am.

I have never actually seen God before,
but you are my proof he does exist.
