I have to
Thank you
From the beginning
Just for being you
And...
I think I pick you,
And I'm here hoping that
You pick me too
And...
That first kiss on my couch,
I can't really describe it.
I melted just a little
But I really tried to hide it.
And...
Thank you for being kind,
Much kinder than I've ever seen.
Your heart seems very gentle,
I bet its beat is serene.
And...
Your mind is beautiful,
I'm glad your exe could never see
The kind of guy you are
And even all the man you could be.
So thank you for being special.
And thank you for being different.
And thank you for changing my world
By simply just being in it.
And thank you for being goofy
And funny
And just a splash of weird.
I hope you'll stay the same despite
The trauma, pain, and all your fears.
Just...
Thank you.
