There are many things I should say

I need to get over the excuse that there will be a better day

My expression is only a fragment of what makes me whole

My gift isn’t the only bliss that accompanies my soul

There are other equations to the puzzle that has made me who I have become

Many elements constitute the making of my sum

This includes the love you so freely share

Everything you have done to express how deeply you care

The understanding you gift when I need it most

The support you lend when I need a host

But most importantly, it’s the friendship you give

Pouring it out like it is the reason you live

My only wish is to be able to return these things back to you

To show gratitude for all the wonderful things you do

So I shall profess my appreciation through written word

And make them be the most sincere proclamation you have ever heard

So that you feel in your heart how profoundly your spirit touches me

And so that you are able to behold the radiance I see

That you understand all you have done has not been in vain

To know I would be lost if you never came

So now is the time, I no longer feel the need to wait

Tomorrow or next week may be too late

I love you more than the deepest love ever sought

And for you just being who you are, how could I not?
