The secrets we keep
always seem to fall so deep
underground
like crumbling rocks all around
you always know the right things to say
you make me fall in love with you
every second of every day
I cherish your beauty
I am forever in your duty
to have and to hold
together, our hearts are bold
our souls together both young and old
From the second I saw you
my heart was sold
You can see the best in me
and soon you will see
that right here is where I want us to be
So tell all them other boys to give up
Because I behold the key
to the everlasting love of you and me.

Usually I write heart break poetry. One of my friends insisted I write a love poem, or a best friend poem, and this was the end result.
