All I do is think of you
And all I want is to be with you.

All I do is make sketches of you because its as close as I get to you

I get sad at the thought of losing you
And sometimes I don't know what to do
But I know I'll make it through thanks to you.

I hope you know that I'll never doubt you
Although sometimes it's hard not to do.

But I never do because I love you
And I want you

And I trust you



And because YOU. ARE. YOU
