This is just me.

There is so much I could express
You shine in so many ways
Some I can't quite put out

You claim to have a rough exterior
You've been through so much loss
So much were deprived
I can see sadness at times when you lay quiet
More of it, when you open that cringing hurt
Sealed in your heart

Part of me feels relatable
But at most, I feel distant
I would never have felt so much empathy

But you always shone out
True qualities in your skin,
Invincible to the sadness you endure
Truly, you are enchanting

You give so much
You give to people who do not deserve
The door you always open
No matter who knocks

I am struggling to know more of you
I am thankful to have you in my life
Never have I found someone more appreciative of my existence
The sheer smile you give
Enlightens me dearly

You give more than I would have hoped for
That leaves me wanting to give back
I would give you my love and prayers
Much more I wish to give you a part of me

All I have
I will give to you
In dark times
when no one wants to
I will give you
me

And we'll be
us
