I drive up to his house

There he is waiting

Arms open with embrace

Here I have the love of my life

Everything is okay

I love him

He heats up chicken soup

The kind to sooth a sore throat

Covers me in blankets filled with hugs.  

He listens to me talk about my day

Everything is okay

I love him

I cry on his shoulder

He listens to my problems

So intently

As if every word is my last

Everything is okay

I love him

I sit at dinner meeting his parents

Hands shaking

Palms sweaty

A warm feeling falls upon my hand

Rush of relief fills my body

Everything is okay

I love him

I hold on to him everyday

As if it isthme last time

I shouldn’t take him for granted

Everything is okay

I love him
