Because I know you.
A simple sentence, to the untrained ear.
Four words from anyone else, I would have scuffed.
Right? Of course, you think you do.
No one can really know me.
Not the real me.
They see only what they want.
But not you.
You see me.
You see the sweat on my brow.
The piles in my closet.
The imperfect cracks on my walls.
You don't run or hide.
But show me yours.
"You always look good."
You hear me
Every word, every sigh.
The language that seems to fall on deaf ears
You understand it fluently.
Taking me in your arms.
"You're my kind of crazy."
"I know you."
When you say that
it's better than the three words overused in passing.
I know you
Speaks to my heart and soul
because it holds truth.
I know you
And still
you love me.
As I know you.
