verb


i hope to be a verb (you are my subject, my everything)

so that I can always be next to you

i wish

for a life (for you are my life, the only reason i exist) with

purpose

with sense (for without you, i am nothing great)

with structure (i only need to know that i am next to you)

without you, i am just a verb-is, were, has, had, will, could,

might.

you bring punctuation to my life (!)

You complete me.
