#BecauseILoveYou Scholarship Slam: I've Never Felt This Way Before

I've never felt this way before.

You don't use me for my body, like they have in the past.

You want a connection, something real, something meaningful that'll last.

You don't ignore me, but listen and care.

"Whats mine is yours" you say, "were in this together, so we share"

Oh, how I adore

I've never felt this way before. 

You make my heart tingle, you make my smile bigger

You make me feel like I'm the real winner. 

You make me laugh louder, you make me feel wanted

I no longer fear that my love life if haunted.

You know my favorite food, my favorite song, color, and more

Oh, how I adore.

I've never felt this way before.

You are my first love, the reason I have no dark place

I just need the confidence to say this face to face. 

Its because I love you, I fear to say

But, I swear one day, I won't let my feelings run away.

Oh, how I adore

I've never felt this way before.
