All I Needed

All I needed to know was that he loved me….

And that was the beginning and the rest of the end.

Because at the end of the day,

I knew that he could just about get away with everything by the way he loved me.

He looked at me somberly as though he knew and I laughed it off because I knew exactly what it meant.

As he gently whispered in my ear,

“No buts, I wouldn’t love anything more than you. Or anyone.”
