Loving You

The first day I looked at you,
I felt stranded and trapped.
No way out of this wall I built,
There was no solution to this problem.

The rain I walk through when you’re around,
Is more like a drizzle than a storm.
But when you leave me I feel confined,
With no way out of the maze.

Monday, I fell in love with you,
Tuesday, I told you I liked you.
Wednesday, said I love you and Thursday, I need you,
Now, I’m feeling like an idiot for having loving you.

The road we walked when we loved,
Is a road I promised never to walk again.
But even then, your attitude never changed,
You even sang me a song.

I felt suffocated and choked up,
I tried finding help or at least an answer.
But there was no reasoning,
And I could do nothing but fall for you again.

Monday, I fell in love with you again,
Tuesday, I told you how much I still like you.
Wednesday, said I still love you and Thursday I need you,
Now, I’m thankful I’m still in love with you.

As I walked down the narrow aisle,
I sneak a quick glance at you.
You look at me with eyes bright,
And I’m still thankful that you said, ‘I do’.
