Why My Love?
Why do I love you?
It’s because you’re you.
I love everything about you.
I love everything you do.
It’s not because you’re beautiful.
Though by any standard you are!
It’s not because of your intellect,
because you’re certainly above par.
It’s not because we’ve journeyed and come so far,
Or the fact that you’ve never changed the kind of person you are.
It’s not because of the beauty with which you adorned our home.
It’s not because you’ve stuck with me, and never left me alone.
It’s because you are you.
You’ve been faithful and true.
And though these words are few,
it’s how I feel about you.
You bring color into my black and white world.
I feel like a love-struck boy in love with a schoolgirl.
You’re God’s gift to me of immeasurable value,
The joy you bring me is sincere and true.
These are the reasons why I love you.
