P R E C I O U S

You are, to me, the greatest sight,

So many days that's brought delight,

Your early smile that touched my heart,

Is all I needed from the very start.

Worsening days of shrills and cries,

Left hurt with feelings passing by,

And this so much I wanted to seal,

To shield this pain with joy to fill.

Your call for relief,

Gave the strength to live,

And knowing you're helpless,

Stirred a desire to give you the best.

Words of which I've wanted to hear,

To see it and feel from a person with care,

But low and behold the truth that is real,

Reminds this soul to depart and heal.

Years increasing and a view of growth,

Endears the heart with continual dotes,

Your curiosity subsided and knowledge immense,

An appreciation of the good seen through this lens.

With tears coming forth and a recalling of errors,

Wounds deeper and pained of past terrors,

A desire to abandon continually beckoned,

The whispers darkening at every second.

And hand in hand we stand,

A test of time with united band,

The forced shedding of skin in misery,

A testimony of winning no longer a mystery.
