Love So True

Poet: Julie Hebert, © 2011

I love you in the morning,
I love you all day long.
I love you in the evening,
Even when you break into song.

Can't seem to live without you,
Or want anyone else.
When did you cast this spell,
I can't control myself.

You're in my thoughts when I wake up,
And never leave till bed.
I dream of you when I sleep,
I can't control my head.

Could this love be real,
It feels so very extreme.
I feel so very obsessed with you,
This love makes me want to scream.

Maybe it's not love at all,
Could I be infatuated with you?
Maybe I'm looking for excuses,
As this love scares me so true.

What's that you say to me,
You love me just the same?
This love we share is real,
And for this, I must exclaim!
