Everyone Says, My Friends Say, He Says, I Say

Everyone says,
He drives a motorcycle
He has a tattoo on his arm
He wears baseball caps and jeans
He wears white T - shirts that are spotted with grease
He gets into fights
He says bad words
He drinks beer and whiskey
He wears a leather jacket
He has black hair and grey soul seeing eyes

My friends say,
His a jerk
His a grease monkey
His a drunk
His a loser
His a bully
His a trouble maker

I say,
He protects me,
Holds me when I cry,
He lets me wear his jacket when I'm cold,
without asking
He sees the real me,
Calls me beautiful,
Tells me he loves me
no matter whose near
Holds me close,
Kisses me in the rain

He says,
I Love you

So when my friends call him names,
And everyone looks at me as if I'm crazy,

I just shrug because his the boy with the key to my heart
He has no intention of giving it back
I have no intention asking for it back

So I say,
I love him
