The Lord’s Gift
By Thomas Turner
Seeing your smiling face
Fills me with so much happiness.
Just looking into your eyes
Takes away all of my sadness.When your arms extend out to me,
I want to rush to you,
So that you can squeeze me so tight,
The way you always do.When your arms are around me,
I don’t want you to let go.
I want the embrace to last forever,
Our bodies connecting from head to toe.Your friendship is so special to me.
Every chance we get to spend together,
Every moment; every second,
Means so very much to me.I know that there is someone else,
Someone that you are devoted to,
But I can’t fight this feeling,
That I’m falling in love with you.I wonder sometimes how you feel,
That maybe you feel the same.
If so, no longer would I struggle
And fight these feelings that I need to tame.I wish there was a way,
Just one simple, positive sign;
A revelation that I could be sure of
So that I could make you mine.I would honor you, pamper you.
I would shower you with so much love.
I would do anything in this world for you,
If you were my gift from the Lord above.
