I look at you
And can’t stop my thoughts from racing back
Racing back to all the times I lost
…in love forest
Before getting to this palace
II
Although I swerved a lot of trouble
I did get bitten by a snake
And got kicked by an antelope and hit by a goat
…all of which I could’ve made meat out of
…but let go
I got spat on by a mad elephant
And thanked God I wasn’t stepped on
And all the while you were here
Majestic
…patient
…handsome
…kind
…loving
…caring
…tendering to me in your dreams
How did I get so lucky?
III
I’ll love you more
Till you or I live no more
I’ll hold you up
Until you forget what it’s like to be down
I’ll be a sky with no clouds
…when it comes to you
When you need a ground to walk on
I’ll be one with no stones nor sticks nor thorns to hurt
For your divine light on me
…deserves its turn
And I’ll so deliver
IV
So keep on being the you I love
Just keep on being the being I treasure
Oooo keep on being the treasure I have saved
…just for me
And I’ll keep on being the best name
…in your awesome book
Till our forever
