Worth It


Love is comfortable and easy, like a lazy Sunday morning

Never having to worry and watch for warnings

Love is happy and giddy and smiles and sighs

Days go by and you still feel the butterflies

In your stomach, the knots the fears the worries,

They’re not there, you’re not in a hurry to

Change, to move to leave, to bury your past.

It’s about finding your soulmate and making it last

Love is about your future and what you can be

With the person beside you, your hopes your dreams

Of what is yet to come and what can possibly

Be the best thing that has ever happened to you

Your rock, your person, the one to call

When there’s good news or bad to buffer the fall

Falling is about getting up again…given yourself another try

Falling is about having someone close by

Who loves your laugh, your touch your smile, your smell

If you haven’t met them yet, you will, you’ll be able to tell

Love is kind and genuine and simple and sweet,

The one person who makes you feel complete.

It may be the person you’ve known forever, or the person

Who will one-day weather

The storms of life with you.

And when you do, it’s like a soft slow rain

Washing away any previous hurt or pains

It’s hope, it’s trust and it’s new and amazing

Gone are the days of games and chasing

The person that doesn’t protect your heart

You don’t need that….this is a new start

Find the person that gets lost in your eyes

And that my friends is what makes you wise

The eyes are the windows to your heart, your soul

And finding that person is what makes you whole.

I love you means you are there for someone through thick and thin

It’s about where you are going. Not where you’ve been

I love you means we are each other’s biggest fan,

Lifting each other up so we can

Build a life, be a husband a wife

A partner and friend who makes this life

Worth it
