This is dorky, like we are.
I love you more than anything
More than words can say.
So much. So so so much.

You’re everything to me, you’ve given me so much:
confidence, happiness, unadulterated bliss, dorkiness,
insanity, euphoria, ecstasy. But most of all, at my young age,
despite everything, despite my faults and the terrible distance between us,
you give me love and hope.

Today when I told you about the lady and her kids I saw.
When I said that it was me in the future.
When I thought that, I saw you as my husband.
See what you do?

I’m so young, but I would give the rest of my life for you.
I’d give anything and everything for you.
I’ll go anywhere for you.

And I’m glad you love me for who I am.
I’m glad I love you with my entire heart.
