My Beloved One

I could stare into your eyes all night.
My beloved one.
You’re the fire in my eyes.
You’re the hope in my heart.

Nothing starts without me thinking of you.
My beloved one.
There’s only you on my mind when I dream at night.
You’re my miracle.

Life would be dark without you.
My beloved one.
I can’t pretend I’m Mozart writing perfect music to be remembered forever.
I’m all thumbs.
I mess up a lot.
But you still love me.

You’re still here.
My beloved one.
I couldn’t live without you.
My days would collapse and the nights would laugh.

If you ever left me they’d have to bury me.
My beloved one.
Without you I’d come undone.
Love is fickled.
You can take it or leave it.
You’re the reason why I bother to breathe.

I look into your blue gray eyes and the world grows brighter.
My beloved one.
Let me love you forever.
You’re my priceless treasure.
You’re my universe.
You’re the glue that keeps me together.

I’d shatter into nothingness if you left.
My beloved one, your voice calls to me.
Your laugh is music to my ears.
We can live happily ever after in the middle of the middle class.
I’ll hold you tight.

Your heartbeat against my ear fills me with joy.
My beloved one, stay.
I love you today and I’ll love you tomorrow.
You will always be my beloved one.

I’ll covet every minute I get to share with you.
My Beloved One.
I’ll store up your love to see me through the hard times.
I know one day even you have to fly on your own.

My beloved one, never forget your way back home.
