To the one who works and toils
The man who keeps capturing my heart
Your smile illuminates my mind
Your heart is so gentle generous and kind
I imagine what it's like to walk by your side
I see the sincereness of your heart in your eyes
And if you held out your hand to me I would grasp it softly and gratefully
Many have tried to distract me with empty words, broken promises, but you make me feel secure
Your words have depth, honor, and tenderness
You are the one that is like my sunrise
You brighten my day
I can't be distracted or pulled away from the sincerity of who you are
Its rare
Its a breathtaking thing to see like looking at the stars
Your heart shines as I look at it
I love speaking to you
Hearing your laugh
Spending hours listening and talking to you
You make me feel like my heart has a home
I feel like I can be who I am with you
I have never felt at home before
I often felt alone even when someone was there
You are the first person to make me feel completely at home
You say I'm beautiful inside and out and I can't help but feel like sharing every part and layer of who I am is such a simple thing to do with you
You were there with gentle words, care, and extended hands
Many times I've been in pain and run from those who have hurt me
But with you all I want to do is run into your arms and hug you
The sweetness of who you are touches me each day
You make me smile and laugh in a way I didn't expect to last
So yes I want to keep walking by your side
But most of all I want to hold your hand as I walk by your side
You are so special and incredible to me in so many ways
You are the one who I would love to spend every hour and day
