Dear: You
Please excuse my pride
when I declare that
You are the other
half to my shadow,
the eyes that glare
into my soul .
You are my virtue
and my conscious,
the other half of
my mind.
As a leaf dances
so carefree
in the warm
crisp air
so does my spirit
when I am with you.
You allow the waves
in the ocean
to elevate so high
they can reach
spiritual eternity.
You give my
soul a face
and my heart
a beat,
a purpose to
go on.
You complete me
And for that I will
always be indebted
to you.
