What You Are To Me

I am a rose, you are my thorns,

clutching to me, protecting me.

I am the sun, you are my rays,

helping me to shine and to be all that I can.

I am a lake, you are my water,

filling me with ideas, dreams, and hopes for the future.

I am a tree, you are my leaves,

sharing who and what I am

and becoming an important part of my life.

I am a heart, you are my beat,

beating rhythmically to my happiness,

my fear, my sadness, my excitement.

I am me and you are with me,

to share all that I am,

to share life, love, and happiness.

Always.
