It’s not up to me to show you that I’m perfect.
You should already know that I am perfect for you
It’s not up to me to tell you you love me
You should say it without hesitation
It’s not up to me to make you see how beautiful I am
You should know the beauty within as well as out
It’s not my place to make you hold me
Your arms around me should be second nature
It’s up to me to show you that you’re perfect for me
But you should already know that you are
It’s up to me to tell you how much I love you
And you should love hearing it
It’s up to me to show you how handsome you are
And the light in your smile confirms it
It’s my place to hold you every chance I get
My warmth should be with you even when I’m not
There are things that we should know but don’t
It’s time to open our eyes and ears and learn these things from one another
This is how we grow
This is how we stop the hatred towards each other
This is how we love
