To the boy who doesn't know I love him...


I love you. 

 

But I love you for reasons that are hard to explain. 

 

I’ve tried to find the words to describe it, but they seem too plain.

 

Now here I stand and here I say

 

To the boy I love on this cool crisp day

 

The reasons why I still love you up until today.

 

I love you because you ask how I’m doing always before I can ask you

 

Just to make sure that I’m never feeling blue.

 

I love you because we can jam to music for hours in the car

 

And completely lose track if we’ve driven too far.

 

I love you because every time you look at me, it’s followed with a grin or a smile.

 

It makes me feel warm and want to stay for a while.

 

I love you because see me as only the best

 

Even when I’m feel like I’m bugging you like a pest. 

 

I love you because even when I feel like you’re gone

 

You always come back and prove me wrong.

 

I love you because you’re you and you love me as me.

 

I love you because when I’m with you, I feel like I can always be the best I can be.
