Devotion

three words,

they dance at the tip of my tongue

it was easy for me to fall for you,

you’re everything i need

your intentions never waver,

your consistency is reassuring

you care for me,

in a way no one has before

falling for you was inevitable,

you reeled me in without even having to try

i knew what i was getting myself into when i pursued you,

i knew that it could mean that if we were ever to be anything that you may have to leave

and you did

i am waiting, i would wait forever

i hope that once you’re home again that things between us stay the same

i hope that you don’t change your mind about me while you’re away

i found a best friend in you,

a lover, and a home

my heart belongs wherever you are

i can picture a life with you

a marriage, a family

you are all that i can think about

my roots are planted deep in the heart of salt lake city,

but i’d rip them from the ground and plant them anywhere else as long as you were there

i want you forever

i want to be yours

today and everyday,

my heart is yours to hold
