The Gift

She gave me her cross to wear around my neck,

It was like she was giving me a piece of herself, to keep me safe, and to protect,

I only wish I had something to give to her, something that I could share,

A possession of some kind to remind her of me, something she could wear,

But I don’t really have anything, not a possession to give anyway,

All I have is my heart and my love for her, and I give that to her everyday,

I want to give her something special, something so she knows that I care,

Something that shows a commitment, so she knows I’ll always be there,

I want it to be a surprise though, because I love the look on her face,

Like the look she had when I first told her I loved her, and then we delicately embraced,

Every week that passes by, my love for her grows more intense,

And I know that we’ll forever be together, because she is my lover, my partner, my best friend.
