More Than Three Simple Words
When I met you, you were different
When I met you, you let me plan the date
When I met you, you were polite
When I met you, you showed interest in all that I do
When I met you, you laughed with me, not at me
When our relationship got serious, I felt comfortable
When we started dating, you respected my wishes
When we started dating, you wanted me to finish my homework and go to sleep
When we started dating, you asked to meet my parents
When we started dating, you wanted the best for me
When you said you loved me, I knew you meant it
Because, you listen to my thoughts and opinions
Because, you respect my values
Because, you want to share your life with me
Because, you trust me unconditionally
Because, you care about my success and support me in all my endeavors
For all these things, I truly mean it when I say those three simple words, I love you.
