Who are you?
Not just a face in the crowd
Nor a magnet in the limelight
Drawing people to your side

Who are you?
Not a young man,
Who's just grown up
Not a wanderer seeking for truth
Or discovering himself

Who are you?
Not just a blanket of comfort
Not just a strong shoulder
To ease away my woes

Who are you?
Not just the apple of my eye
Or a sunny, immaculate smile
To put a sparkle to my life

Who are you?
Apart from being
A zealous marine reefer
Or an avid animal lover
You are passionate
About things that matter
About things that you love
And you never cease to amaze me
With your unique personality

Being yourself
Is your speciality
For no one is quite like you
You are different

You're like the sea
At times with a tempestous storm
yet at times so tranquil and placid
You are ineffable

I'm not yet sure
Of what you define
There are hidden layers
Waiting to be torn apart

But I can see some bits
Of who you don't want me to see
Those qualities complete you
Like adding touches
To a masterpiece

Why you drew me in
I won't be able to answer
Your vulnerability under the surface
Attracts me in subtle ways

It isn't just your charms
Or wit and humour
But there's something
About your everything
That prods me in the heart
Then I knew from that moment
You've captured my soul
Not sure when you'll let go

So I melt in your arms
When you tell me you care
Loving me no matter what
No matter when or where

Am I special?
Just like you are?
Will you be mesmerized
Beyond the imaginable, that far?

Three words for now
Let's live for the present
Because the present is inviting
It's our sweet escapade

I love you.
