You'Ve Given Me
I want you to know that I'm grateful
for you in my life at this time.
You've given me something enormous,
something I get to call only mine.
Seeing the end of my life from here
I am sad when I think of my past.
I wanted to accomplish more credible things
so that my memory would somehow last.
Then I realized something the other day.
I have done something I didn't think about.
I have loved you so unconditionally
That you know this without a doubt.
This may not seem like a big issue for some
who are reading these words on this sheet
If you only knew how my lack of attention
made many things I've tried incomplete.
But you were a different story
something about you affected my heart
I actually felt you inside of my being
and that was where all this got it's start.
From that point on I was consumed
by visions of you in my mind.
You were all I wanted and thought about
I've never had feelings like this of any kind.
I poured everything into my love for you.
I had to make sure you knew
that this feeling of pure admiration and love
was real and solid and true.
So my claim in this life that I make
is that you can stand there and know for a fact
That I showed you a love that was unconditional
and for once in my life it wasn't an act.
