Sitting up each night
Wondering what it would be like
If you were never here
Never around for me to talk to
I would be swallowed whole by the depths of sadness
But, somehow, you manage to stay
Right next to me
No matter what I do or say to you
You stick by me through it all
You've never pushed me out the door
You've kept me close to your heart
And you've told me how much you care
Every day that passes by, you tell me once again
With a kiss on each eye lid and a hug
You lay me down to sleep in my warm bed
and sit next to me on the floor watching and protecting me
From what I don't know but you love doing it
Keeping me safe from everything that poses as a threat
Making sure I take my medicine when I am feeling sick
No matter how blue I am feeling, you make me feel glad
You hold my hand through lifes trials and tribulations
At some points you carry me when I am too weak to stand alone
But as long as you are here, I am never truly standing alone
I will always have a friend as long as you are around
I never have to worry about anything when I am with you
You take care of everything and make it all turn out perfect
You are my true inspiration
To be as good and pure as you
To be as caring, as thoughtfull, and as gracious
To be able to give my life up for someone I don't even know
Would be the ultimate task
But you have done that and so much more
You are my life's devotion
You are my God and I shall forever praise you
