I looked at you and this time I knew
You are the one I am meant to choose
I want to love you deeply
Accept me
Allow me to love you freely
Give you preference
Choose you again and again and again
Love you like only I can
Fill you like no one ever has
I can help you heal
I'm the remedy for the numbness
I will help you feel
Joy. Peace. Whole. Again.
I am the love you are meant to have
Choose me again and again and again
Love me like only you can
