I Think I Love You

One of the things I like about you
One of many
Is how you think about what you do
Instead of just following blindly
Fill-in-the-blank forms
Of commonday norms
But with care considered and kindly
With integrity intentional
You do the things you do thoughtfully
Without any
Compromise with the conventional

Despite all the pressure to perform
In a certain way
I know you will
Resist all the clamor to conform
Which you hear each day
Be yourself still
One reason you mean so much to me
You are real and true
This is something which I can always
Count on to get me through the dark days
I can count on you

And you are just right just as you are
I think I love you ...if from afar
