Love is easy; I don’t care what they say

Falling for him happened in but a blink,

I didn’t have to plan, I didn’t want to run

It was easy and I didn’t have to think

Lord knows I’m a planner, a thinker too

And don’t stop or settle for any less

So when love happenned the way it did

I embraced with both hands, effortless

Love is easy; I don’t care what they say

But what isn’t easy, is to understand,

To understand me on days I don’t know myself

When it feels like I’m drowning in quick sand

Today I look back, overwhelmed to learn

My childhood dreams didn’t come true

I wished for a life centered around love

“It won’t be easy” they made sure I knew

How silly, I muse as I smile to myself

Knowing well I have his love and his heart

But what I cherish more than all of it combined

Is his understanding, of my light and dark
