What makes me want you,
More than anything, here?
Why am I drawn to you,
Why do I want to keep you near?

There are many things,
Little things that make it so
A tender kiss upon the lips
A gentle hug to let me know

Or maybe it's your laughter
So sweet and riotous loud
Or maybe simply your presence
And how you hold it proud

It could be your humor
Wrapped in chocolate honey
Could be the way you view the world
Privileged without money

Maybe it's in your eyes
Shimmering blues and greens
Or the way you toss your hair
And put it up by any means

Perhaps it's your casual attire
Shadowed by your friendship
Or each of your tiny freckles
Numbered but seeming endless

I think it might be your teeth
White and perfect too
Or could be the way
You do the things you do

Then again, it might be you
How your attitude shines so bright
Luminous in the darkened sky
A flaming lantern's light

But I know it's not this or that
Not one single reason is the one
But it is all wrapped up inside
This gorgeous, beautiful woman

You, and everything that makes you
Quirks and pains, hates and likes
Everything that is you I love
And every day I miss you is a day I dislike
