To understand the whole you must know every part,
Each word has a special meaning when looked at from the heart.
The "I" mean every bit of me, all that you can find,
The inner me, the outer me, my heart, my soul, my mind.
The caring me, the sharing me, the me that would hold your hand,
The me you like, the me you don't, do you understand?
The happy me, the laughing me, the me that wants to cry,
All the things that make up me, make that little single "I."
The "Love" is the most important part fur without it we cannot live,
It means to care, it means to share, it means to take and give.
It means to laugh, it means to cry, it means to hugs and kiss,
It means to hold, and to let go, and so much more than this.
It means to help each other, it means to be as one.
The "YOU" means every bit of you, all that I can find,
The outer you, the inner you , your heart, your soul, your mind.
The shy you, the gentle you, the you I want to touch,
The special you, the hidden you, the you I need so much.
The worried you, the sad you, the sweet you, the glad you,
All the things that make up you, make that single "YOU."
So no matter how it sounds or where we may be,
When I said, "I LOVE YOU" it means all of this to me.

Thank you for your entry
This is the way to express love. It is what it says. To accept all of the person you love, completely and totally without reservation. Through the good, the bad and the indifferent. Very well done, good flow and structure.
Thanks for the read and good luck.
God Bless
