To the one I love



To the one I love,
You bring me all that I'm void of
Even though on surface I may seem rough
It's because of my past, growing up was tough
Some may see our fights as a reason to break up
But they don't see when we hug and make up
I can tell what we have is true
That's why I've begun to pursue
The beautiful person that is you
Without you I don't know what I would do
You have changed my life for better
when I wasn't sure it could get much worse
I wasn't sure I'd be able to get her
And break this everlasting curse
You now have the key to my heart
Till death do us part
