What a privilege it is to get to know you and love you

I hope you find getting to know yourself

As exciting as you find getting to know a lover

Because you are so much fun to love

And every time you buy a chocolate chip cookie

Because you know it's your favourite

Or you order a coffee exactly how you like it

Or bring water to your bedside

For when you're thirsty in the middle of the night

Or you put on your favourite movie

[even though you've seen it a million times]

Or you order in so you don't have to worry about dinner

I hope you enjoy knowing you

As much as everyone else does

And I hope your thoughtfulness toward yourself

Doesn't go unnoticed

It's an intimate thing, memorising details about someone

And never forgetting them

It's the kind of love you've always wanted, isn't it?

What a privilege it is to get to know you.

What a privilege it is to get to love you.
