I Love You

I like touching you, I like you touching me
I like the feel of your skin, so soft, so smooth
And in other places, so rough, so strong
I like your body, next to mine
Your beautiful, yet imperfect body
Merging with my equally flawed body
As in life, nothing is perfect, but I feel 
What we have is close enough

I love us, the way we are
In tune with each other, in love with one another
I love the closeness we share
Intense togetherness, yet private separateness
I love the definition of us, the good and the bad
All define who we are, and what we have
I love our history, I love our present
And I am in love with our future

I pray we’ll always be like this
Whisper to me that it can only get better
Promise me we’ll never lose this
Because I promise you the same
I promise to always be there
I make these promises, because that’s all I want
I love you, how I love you
