Smiling

I don't know what it is about you, but every time I think of you I can't help but smile,
I know we just got reacquainted and we haven't kicked it in a while.

But damn...

How did I not see the beauty that was right before my eyes,
I guess I was so deep in darkness I could not see the sunshine.

You said you appreciate me, well I appreciate you too,
I didn't know what I needed and now I think I do.

Thank you for coming in my life and giving me that extra push to be better,
I hope when you read this you blush, because this is my love letter.

I'm not going to bust out in an R. Kelly song, but you do make me sing,
I like saying your name on my lips, it's got a nice ring.

I now that I deserve to be able to be my full self and let my hair down now,
I want someone I can lean on and who I know is down.

I want that forever kinda love where leaving isn't an option,
Someone laid back enough to go fashion and grocery shopping.

Someone who I can be a rock for and say don't worry I got you boo,
I don't know your full story but its obvious what you been through.

You need to stop messing with them lames and get with a queen,
They may have rocked ice, but Ally can show you real gleam.

I really like what I'm seeing, the more I get to know you,
So uh, how about you take a break from them and let me show you.

Because its obvious to me you've been missing a lot of things,
Simply put you will find the answer in me.

I know the way to you heart is going to be a long road,
But I'm willing if you're willing to do this, let's grow!

I want to help you build your empire because best believe mine is on the rise
I want to be the one next to you when the sun rise.

When you care for someone, it's all about thinking of their wants first,
I told you boo, I got this, I'm willing to do whatever to make it work.

And no, I'm not whispering sweet nothings right now and spitting game,
I promise you forever and always my dedication will be the same.

Because to me, you are not some prize to be won,
You are a woman whose potential has only just begun.

You deserve someone whose goal is to make you happy,
I'm willing to sign my name on the dotted line gladly.

You should be with someone whose loves comes effortless,
Someone who you have chemistry and a connection with.

The greatest gift I could ever have is being able to call you mine
I just hope you are ready for me, and think I'm worth your time.
