You

You are the air I breath.
You are the sun in my sky.
When I am with you, I am at ease.
When I am without you, I feel as if I could die.
You are my light in the pure darkness.
You are my moon shining on the ocean.
To you, "I'm your little princess,"
but around you, I feel like I've taken a love potion.
I could not imagine living without
the sweetness that you bring to my life.
Maybe someday I'll be your wife.
I wish I could sing
a beautiful song to you,
but I cant find it in myself
to just let you know
how much I really do love you.
