You

[.... to you]

You are a gift to me....
.... a precious moment in time
I did not expect that in my life
I would be given such a gift

I thank you for every delightful second
that you give to me....
This time probably doesn't mean very much
to you.... your future stretches out before you
and these moments will one day
be just a pleasant memory

.... but for me, these moments mean so much
All my life I have dreamed of this gift
.... never expecting that it would come
.... but here you are
... and here I stand
in awe of what you give to me

So.... never doubt yourself
Never think that you are not important
You are my precious gift
..... and I love you so much.
