Safe and Sound

Smile for me
and show me what I can never have.
But as long as your next to me,
it doesn't matter.
So let's live our lives
the only way we know how,
we'll drink and joke
and I'll lace every single word
with "I love you."
I'll flash you every single look
with that twinkle in my eye,
and I'll hold you like this forever;
safe and sound.
If you could only see
what's right in front of you.
Next time I smile,
know it's just for you.
Tomorrow when the sun rises,
know it's just for you.
And when it dies
and the stars shine on your street,
know I'm looking up and them
and thinking of you.
So lets live our lives
the only way we know how.
We'll drink and joke
and I'll lace every single word with,
"I love you."
So let's live our lives
the only way we know how,
like every day is our last.
And as long as your next to me,
time will never pass us by.
So flash me that smile I love
and know that every thing I do,
Is for you.

In this poem and previous ones you said stuff like if you just noticed me, if you saw how I looked at you, etc.  It gives the impression she doesn't know you love her.  Common sense tells me if you want something you have to go get it.  But as I also previously said in another comment she could very well be fictional.  In which case, I'm not sure I'd like the poems as much because then they, just like the fictional girl, wouldn't be real.
