This Is It

I tried to write a love song

but all the good metaphors have been used

I just want to serenade you

so do you have a favorite one

every song makes me think of you

so I listen on a loop

I think of forever

and all I see is you

I can handle all the lows

if it means showing you I am staying right here

romance is all well and good

true intimacy comes in the little moments

I don't understand my emotions

the chemicals are a bit off in my head

it makes falling in love easy

but staying that way is hard

when I saw you, all the noise stopped

the quiet was a new thing

but your beauty took all my focus

you so quickly became my peaceful place
