All the Little Things

You have impacted my life in ways you don’t know
Which is why I want to give you my all
But how can one measure such emotion?
Is it possible to neutralize such a debt?
Such a feat seems improbable…
But it’s kind of funny-
It’s always those subtleties
Those small things that always seem to make the biggest difference
So when it comes to you and I, what I want- is close to nothing…
I only want a little bit of time, so that we can last forever
I only want a little smile, so that I will live in absolute bliss
I only want a chuckle, so that our lives are filled with laughter
I only want to grasp your hand, so that I can ever hold you in my arms
I only want to hum your name, so that I can sing your praises for all to hear
I only want to be slightly close to you, so that we can never part
And I only want to love you today, so that I can love you…always
