You're not even

Aa Harvey

 You’re not even.

 

 

You’re not the greatest dancer, but I would love to dance with you.

You’re not the greatest singer, but we are so in tune.

You’re not a model or designer, but I love your style.

You’re not the funniest, but you do make me smile.

 

 

You’re sometimes irritating, but I don’t mind.

You’re doing my head in!  By always’ being so right.

You’re not what I expected, but you are a pleasant surprise.

You’re not what I had imagined, because I never aimed so high.

 

 

You’re expecting so much from me, that you inspire me to do more.

You’re crying again, but to me you have never looked more beautiful.

You’re worrying about everything, as you put my mind at ease.

You’re not even a ten out of ten, because you are an eleven to me.

 

 

You love some music I hate, but we love more of the same.

You’re the only one who can hurt me, but you cure all of my pain.

You’re not my usual type, but you are all that I need.

You’re mean sometimes, to other people, but never to me.

 

 

You’re not to everybody’s tastes, but you’re the only flavour I like.

You’re a nightmare to sleep next to!  But you can keep me up all night.

You’re a love worm, sinking under my skin;

You’re sulking again, so I get to give you more loving.

 

 

You’re putting me to shame, by taking the blame.

You’re an itch I cannot scratch, but I would never send you away.

You’re not the life of the party, but you fill up my life.

You’re laughing at something stupid I said,

But you make me happy, when I see your smile light up your eyes.

 

 

You’re not a writer or an artist, but you can see the real picture.

You’re not the woman I once knew, because you made me forget her.

You’re taking over my life,

But I’ve been secure in your hands since the start.

You’re not the richest in the land, but you have a priceless heart.

 

 

You’re not wearing make-up,

Because you have a naturally beautiful face.

You leave me lost for words, with the funny things that you say.

You’re taking things to heart, but you keep me there with you happy;

You’re nothing like me, but who would want you to be?

 

 

You’re a hot rash that I shouldn’t touch, but I can’t leave you alone.

You’re a big bubble, but at least you know how to strike a pose.

You’re not an energy bunny, but I am happy to just chill with you.

You’re a moody blue, but still I love you.

 

 

You’re an annoyance, I can’t sleep without.

You’re so sexy!  And you leave me without doubt.

You’re not my wife, but I hope you will be soon.

You’re not the first, maybe the last;

But you are the best…swoon…
